Where We Are In The Process
• Still in Exploration stage
• over $100M spent to date
• Consultation with
FN’s

Overview
• One of the most significant exploration plays in Ontario’s history
• Significant discoveries of chromite, nickel, copper and platinum group elements
• Chromite potential emerging as the most significant development opportunity

Overview
• Development could include: mine, mill, smelter refinery
• Requires significant infrastructure development including rail, hydro transmission and port facilities
• An opportunity to think strategically and plan for development in an environmentally sustainable manner

Overview
• Significant economic development driver for
Northern Ontario, supporting regional and community infrastructure development and value-added manufacturing
• Significant economic development opportunities for a number of First Nation communities
• Significant direct and indirect jobs during construction as well as permanent jobs once facilities are in production

What is Needed
Mine and Mill
• Open pit…..
• Construction of a concentrating mill (at mine site?); estimated 4000 tonnes per day
Processing
• $500M ferrochrome foundry/smelter; technology options studied
• Sourcing coking coal for smelting process
Infrastructure
• Construction of a new railway line (~350 km) to ship ore or concentrate
• Significant electrical power:
– 25 to 35 MW for a mine/mill facility
– 100 MW for a smelter
• Deep-water port locations for a possible smelter site

Our Strategic Approach

Perspective
• This is only one of the major activity areas in the Mining Exploration Field.
