#13 (2000) A. B. Parsons, The Porphyry Coppers
(1933) “Introduction”• The Braden mine and the other South American properties
illustrate and confirm the statement that men make mines. • If American engineers - or perhaps British - had never laid
eyes on Chuquicamata, on Rancagua, on Potrerillos, it is certain as anything can be in this world of uncertainties that the Chilean Andes would still be the undisturbed storehouse for 4 billion pounds of copper that already have gone into the industrial plants of Europe and the United States.
• The huge electric shovels, the locomotives, electric generators, crushing machinery, smelting furnaces and other equipment, representing an investment of $150,000,000 [U.S. dollars] that now are busy winning copper in South America, never would have been needed but for American engineers.
• And in saying this, no unkind reflection is directed at the Chileans or the people of any other country.
• It is not in accordance with their tradition or temperament to conceive and carry out such projects.

#24 Douglas’ 1918 Draft Letter to “My Dear
Children”“My hope is that the mining and railroad enterprises that I have been one of the instruments in developing will be carried on as heretofore;…that the value of the stocks and the rates of dividend be of very secondary consideration and in the conduct of the mines the welfare of the men under and above ground be regarded as of more importance than the cost of manufacturing copper.”
