  1. “Ring of Fire” Overview

  2. MINING CYCLE • http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0lhf9U5Wf3Q

  3. Key Host Rocks for Chromite, Copper-Nickel McFaulds Lake Superimposed on Thunder Bay to demonstrate scale

  4. Drill Rig in the “Ring” Flat, wet and remote

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

  6. 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

  7. 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

  8. 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

  9. 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

  10. Our Strategic Approach
