Milford Mining To Add 160 Jobs, Invest $20M

Meanwhile, Milford Mining received an incentive through the state’s Rural Economic Development Tax-Increment Financing program for its plan to add 160 jobs and invest $20 million in rural Utah over the next five years, according to the GOEO.

“Utah’s rich mineral resources are a significant draw for companies seeking a supportive environment that values responsible and sustainable mining practices,” Starks said. “Utah offers a skilled workforce, excellent infrastructure, and proximity to key markets, making it a prime destination for mining ventures.”

Milford Mining is dedicated to “sustainable resource extraction and responsible environmental practices,” according to the GOEO, and prioritizes the wellbeing of its communities. Jen Wakeland, Strategic Development Director for Beaver County, said the revitalization of the mining industry in Beaver County is reminiscent of the county’s first economic boom in the mid-1800s.

“A far cry from those early days of mining, Milford Mining will bring invigorated processes, updated technologies, and will hire some of the best workforce to manage the resources produced by the mine,” Wakeland said. “As the mining tradition in our county moves forward, we are thrilled to endorse and encourage Milford Mining.”

Darin Malchus, Vice President of Milford Mining, agreed.

“Western Beaver County has historically been a location containing high-grade minerals,” said Malchus said. “Never before has copper been so important to the nation’s energy systems as it is currently. Utah’s cooperation with the mining community, combined with access to local talent were significant factors in Milford Mining’s decision to commence operations in the state.”
