ASARCO - Ray Mine Reviews

They have a "scenic overlook" about a mile north of the mine entrance. The company's security guy directed us to the overlook. There is a gravel road back to the overlook, drive slowly. If you didn't know that the overlook was here, you would miss it altogether. What a site. If you are driving through the area, make the stop. The size is awe inspiring. Be aware that the highway, although a nicely paved road, is steep and has lots of turns. Not a drive for the faint of heart.

Worked here over 40 years retired 1 year ago good job and great bunch I worked with miss the people but not the shift work

Well I got hired march 20 an just got terminated last night for no reason I've tried asking the reason why I'm getting fired an they just say it's a probation termination an they dont need a reason which is a lie I wouldnt go back here that's for sure

Still on strike waiting for a fair contract since October 13th 2019 scabs are working

Best copper around. Wide selection of flavors- sulfide and oxide. 10/10 would visit again.

Be prepared for 10%-12% mountain grades if coming to the mine from the north, and that's not an exaggeration. The roads here are steep, and you will be loaded heavy if you're picking up copper. Definitely check your brakes THOROUGHLY before heading here.

Required for checkin: Load pickup number, Drivers license, Tractor license plates on front and rear of tractor, registration card, trailer license plate, trailer swept thoroughly, be sure to wear long pants and closed toe shoes (steel toes preferred). Hard hat, safety vest, and safety glasses are also required and will be issued if you dont have it. They will give you wheel chocks as well - you MUST use them every time you get out of the truck. I've seen people escorted out for not doing that.

The guards are nice if you come prepared and ready to be loaded. Have everything ready to go and theyll get you loaded and out of there ASAP. Show up like a slob and you'll be treated accordingly.

Security Is SOOOOO unorganized!!!!!!!
3 ppl working the shack but takes forever to get signed IN!!!!

A mine in Superior AZ. There is a cool cut off road just off the road that leads to a few picnic tables and a scoop, tire overlooking the mine where workers are always working you can see the dump trucks move around trains move, trucks dump ore, provides free Binoculars to view in (welded into the earth) Free to go to pretty cool place for photos and good pictures and sceneries to take pictures of...

Would recommend!

I did not realize that the workers were on strike. I had interview with asarco in Kearney . The hiring company that set up the interview did not tell me about the strike. I'm am a union worker. I apologize to the people that are on strike for crossing the picket line. I would have never gone to the interview if I had known about the strike. Good luck and I hope they meet your demands
