U.S. Secretary of the Interior Ken Salazar is expected to announce this morning at 10 a.m. PDT the Obama Administration’s decision regarding the extension of a 1-million acre mining ban around the Grand Canyon for 20 years.
In 2009 Salazar ordered a two-year time-out from all new mining claims in the Arizona Strip near the Grand Canyon.
