Vulcan, Inc. is a multinational Fortune 200 company engaging principally in the exploration for and extraction of minerals. It is listed on the New York Stock Exchange and has 615 million shares outstanding. On March 7, Vulcan Inc. Chief Executive Officer Stewart Myer held a private meeting with Martha Bordeaux, the VP for finance; Lamont Johnson, the chief geologist; and Nastasha Bylinski; the VP for acquisitions at an Atlanta airport. Upon meeting, chief geologist Lamont Johnson relayed his report to the executives that they had discovered remarkable tests results regarding the conductivity of rocks in Montana. To obtain samples without giving any information to the landowners, Johnson “pretended to be a motion picture company looking for locations to remake the movie High Noon.” Myer reminded his coworkers that it was critical maintaining absolute secrecy and that he would decide and tell who needs to know. At 10:00 A.M. on April 11, Vulcan Inc. CEO Stewart Myer announced the company’s “strike” in Montana containing at least 30 million tons of high-grade copper and zinc ore. Based on the facts provided, I will conclude by detailing the appropriate claims by Vulcan shareholders in regards to the illegal activities of its executives.…

    In the 1950’s, a vast deposit of bauxite was found at the Yirrkala Methodist mission in the Northern Territory. When the mission lease expired, the Federal Government changed it to a special purpose lease that could be taken away for mining, but no Aboriginal people were consulted. When the Methodist missionaries Edgar and Ann Wells arrived at Yirrkala, they learnt that the Aboriginal people were very disturbed and anxious that the mining would violate their sacred sites but despite the feelings of the Aborigines, the Prime Minister, Robert Menzies, announced that a mining project was to go ahead at Yirrkala.…
