Upstart mining firm Canada Nickel Company said it is very excited about a new MOU (Memorandum of Understanding) they have entered into with Glencore Canada Operation to potentially use the Kidd concentrator and metallurgical site for its exciting new nickel project north of Timmins.
The non-binding agreement was officially announced on Monday. “We’ve been in discussions over the last couple of months,” Canada Nickel Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Mark Selby told The Daily Press.
Canada Nickel Company has a 100 per cent ownership in the Crawford Project located approximately 40 kilometres north of the city.
If eventually approved, it would allow them to process material mined at the project much earlier originally planned.
“The opportunity is for us to be able to get started more quickly, because obviously retrofitting an existing mill can happen a lot more quickly than building a brand new mill from scratch,” said Selby.
