April 16 (Reuters) – The U.S. Senate on Thursday voted to overturn former President Joe Biden’s mining ban in northern Minnesota, agreeing with the House of Representatives and sending the bill to President Donald Trump, who is expected to sign it.

The move is a major boost to Antofagasta’s Twin Metals copper, cobalt and nickel project. The Senate voted 51-49 to send the measure to Trump’s desk after the House approved it in January.
