Eagle's Nest Mine Project

Wyloo Ring of Fire Ltd. is proposing to construct, operate, decommission and abandon a multi-metal underground mine to produce and supply nickel, copper, and platinum group metals. The proposed Eagle's Nest Mine Project is located approximately 540 kilometres north of Thunder Bay, Ontario, and 240 kilometres west of James Bay in the Ring of Fire mining area. The project will produce approximately 3,000 tonnes of ore per day and is expected to operate for approximately 12 to 15 years. The on-site metal mill would have an ore input capacity of approximately 3,000 tonnes per day. The project would have a surface footprint of approximately 100 hectares.

A previous comprehensive study of this project is available on Registry page 63925.
