Introducing our Mining Workshop Project Team

As our faithful readers will already know, Stonecircle is currently working with the Ontario Ministry of Northern Development on Mines to deliver mining workshops to First Nation communities in north eastern and north western Ontario.

The workshops are being provided to those First Nations near sites where mining companies have expressed interest or where there are potential mineral deposits of interest. First Nations have expressed a need for more awareness of mining in order to take advantage of any potential mining opportunities in their territory.

32 communities have been contacted by MNDM, and once we have been invited into the community, Stonecircle will follow up and prepare the logistics. 

We'd now like to introduce our team for this project.  These are the familiar faces of Stonecircle and Consilium staff, as well as some new faces.  We have engaged a number of First Nation facilitators who are located in north eastern and north western Ontario.

Bottom row from left to right: facilitators Daniel Wemigwans, Kenora; Cindy Crowe, Thunder Bay; and, Chris McKay, Mattagami First Nation.

Communities can request a workshop during July or August or early September.  Once we hit the road, we'll provide updates on how the project is moving along.  Stay tuned...
