HURLEY, N.M. -- A pair of obsolete smokestacks in the
southwestern New Mexico mining town of Hurley are to be
reduced to stacks of rubble June 5. One of the
smokestacks is 625 feet tall, and the other is 500 feet.
They're the last remnants of a Phelps Dodge copper
smelter that closed in 2002 a victim of falling copper
prices and advances in copper extraction.
The two smokestacks had been scheduled to be leveled
today, but a court challenge forced the company to
reschedule the demolition. A crew hired by Phelps Dodge
on Wednesday flattened a 599-foot smokestack in the
former smelter town of Playas in New Mexico's bootheel.
The smokestack was the last major relic of Phelps
Dodge's Hidalgo copper smelter, which closed in 1999.
