1 Introduction Webequie Supply Road Environmental Assessment Draft Terms of Reference 1 Introduction The purpose of this document is to present the Terms of Reference (ToR) for the Webequie First Nation Supply Road Project (“Webequie Supply Road”, “WSR”, “the Project”) to meet the requirements of the Ontario Environmental Assessment Act (EA Act). The ToR is a document that establishes the framework for the planning and decision-making process during the Environmental Assessment (EA) and is submitted by the proponent to the Minister of the Environment, Conservation and Parks (MECP) for review and approval. Alongside the ToR document, material to be submitted for the public record includes the Record of Consultation, which is a stand-alone written record that documents the engagement of and consultation with Indigenous (First Nation and Métis) communities, government agencies, the public, and stakeholders during the development of the ToR, including feedback received (comments, concerns, questions) and project team responses. The proposed Webequie Supply Road is a new all-season road of approximately 107 km in length from Webequie First Nation to the mineral deposit area near McFaulds Lake (also referred to as the Ring of Fire). A Location Plan for the Project is shown on Figure 1.1. The preliminary corridor for the road consists of a northwest-southeast segment running 51 km from Webequie First Nation to a 56 km segment running east before terminating near McFaulds Lake. A total of 17 km of the corridor is within Webequie First Nation Reserve lands. Based on the scale and complexity of the Project, and the potential for significant environmental effects, an Individual Environmental Assessment must be completed for approval under the EA Act. The Webequie Supply Road could be constructed and operated as a facility that only provides a connection between Webequie First Nation and the McFaulds Lake area to serve mineral exploration and future mining development activities, with no connection to the provincial highway system. However, it is expected that there will ultimately be an all-season road connection between the McFaulds Lake area and the provincial highway system to ensure/maximize the viability of mine developments. This means that, with implementation of the Project, it is also likely that Webequie First Nation could more readily gain year-round access to the provincial highway system (i.e., the community currently has no plans to avoid an all-season road connection to the provincial highway system). It is in this scenario that the effects of the road would likely be realized or felt to the fullest. 1.1 Proponent The Project proponent is Webequie First Nation (WFN). Webequie First Nation is an Ojibway community located in Northwestern Ontario, approximately 525 km north of Thunder Bay (refer to Figure 1.1). The Webequie First Nation is a fly-in community with no summer road access, and a total registered on-reserve population of 923 people (Indigenous Services Canada, 2019). The Webequie First Nation Reserve is currently serviced by the Webequie Airport. Since 2015, the community has been involved in the investigation of an all-season road corridor as a means to better service the community, and provide for economic development opportunities for its members and businesses that reside in or around the community’s reserve and traditional territory. 661910 September 2019 1 . 0.000000 300000.000000 600000.000000 900000.000000 1200000.000000 Kettle Polar Bear Prov.

  • Chapter 28 Eagle's Nest: a Magmatic Ni-Sulfide Deposit in the James Bay
    © 2010 Society of Economic Geologists, Inc. Special Publication 15, pp. 539–557 Chapter 28 Eagle’s Nest: A Magmatic Ni-Sulfide Deposit in the James Bay Lowlands, Ontario, Canada JAMES E MUNGALL,†,1,2 JOHN D HARVEY,2 STEVEN J BALCH,3 BRONWYN AZAR1,2 JAMES ATKINSON,2 AND MICHAEL A HAMILTON1 1 Department of Geology, University of Toronto, 22 Russell St, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5S 3B1 2 Noront Resources Ltd, 105 Adelaide St West, Ste 110, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M5H 1P9 3 Canadian Mining Geophysics Ltd, 11500 Fifth Ln, Rockwood, Ontario, Canada N0B 2K0 Abstract The Eagle’s Nest Ni-Cu-PGE deposit was discovered in the McFaulds Lake area of the James Bay lowlands of northern Ontario, Canada, in 2007 by Noront Resources Ltd. It is a magmatic sulfide deposit hosted by mafic and ultramafic rocks interpreted to be a feeder conduit beneath an extensive complex of sills and related volcanic rocks, which range in composition from dunite through ferrogabbro to rhyolite. The complex, called the Ring of Fire, has been dated at 2734.5 ± 1.0 Ma and it was emplaced into 2773.37 ± 0.9 Ma felsic plutonic rocks. The felsic rocks form a sill complex structurally beneath metasedimentary and metavolcanic rocks con- sidered to have formed along a passive margin at ca. 2800 Ma within the Oxford-Stull domain of the North Caribou superterrane in the Archean Superior province. In its original configuration, the Eagle’s Nest deposit formed in a shallowly plunging or subhorizontal keel structure at the base of a dike-like chonolith, but subsequent deformation has turned it into a vertically plung- ing rod of sulfide mineralization along the northwestern margin of a north-south–striking dike.

  • KWG Resources Inc. Risk Rating: Speculative
    July 10, 2013 Equity Research Initiating Coverage KWG:TSX-V $0.055 (07/09/14) Recommendation: Speculative BUY Target Price: $0.20 KWG Resources Inc. Risk Rating: Speculative A New Technology for a New Chromite District: KWG Stock Chart The New King of the Ring? Highlights: We are initiating our coverage on KWG Resources with a $0.20 target price and Speculative BUY rating. KWG is an exploration company with interests in the highly-prospective Black Horse and Big Daddy chromite deposits in the McFaulds Lake area of the Ring of Fire ("ROF") district in northwestern Ontario. More importantly, KWG recently secured control of two provisional U.S. patent applications and underlying intellectual property for the production of chromium- iron alloys directly from chromite ores and concentrates (“the Chromium IP”), which we believe represents a potential breakthrough technology that could be the key to unlocking the ROF. The Chromium IP process uses natural gas as its energy source which compares favourably to existing ferrochrome technology that is more energy-intensive as it uses electricity as its energy source and operates at higher temperatures. We believe that KWG’s most important initiative should be advancing the commercialization of this new Chromium IP process. We believe that KWG should bring in an existing ferrochrome or integrated steel producer with a strong balance sheet as a strategic partner to more quickly advance the commercialization process. Secondly, the Company needs to rationalize its option to acquire an 80% interest in the Black Horse chromite deposit into a clear path to owning 100% in order to negotiate with potential strategic partners.
