Print[Ferro-Alloys.com] The village of Stanley, N.B., is one step closer to getting a massive tungsten mine.
Vancouver-based Northcliff Resources submitted its environmental-impact assessment to the federal government. It wants to start an open-pit tungsten mine in Stanley. The mine could employ hundreds of residents.
Northcliff’s Greg Davidson said the company has done the ground work and the public has nothing to fear.
“I certainly identify the concerns we’ve heard over the past couple of years. We’ve implemented mitigation strategies to minimize any impacts,” he said.
Northcliff expects to create 500 jobs during the construction phase — that's more than the population of Stanley.
It anticipates 300 jobs during the 27-year operation.
