The Thunder Bay Community Economic Development Commission (CEDC) wants to establish some mining research and innovation capacity in northwestern Ontario.
The CEDC has inked a memorandum of understanding (MOU) with Sudbury’s Centre for Excellence in Mining Innovation (CEMI) to bring their technical expertise to the region.
“We have a number of mining projects in northwestern Ontario and some of them may not get off the ground unless we have innovation,” said Doug Murray, CEO of the city’s development commission.

Northern Ontario’s history is tied to that of mining. It was back in 1919 that a rush for silver in the north led instead to a discovery of gold and a another sort of rush.
This led to the development of several mines and creation of the township of Teck, eventually renamed Kirkland Lake in 1972.
Renowned bronze sculptor Tyler Fauvelle has created a lifesized recreation of a period prospector which has been placed near the Toburn mine, the first of several which once flourished, and are now gone.

A Toronto junior miner believes there’s a grab bag of minerals on its exploration property in the Sudbury-Wanapitei area, east of Sudbury.
MacDonald Mines Exploration has started the first phase of a 1,500-2,000-metre diamond drilling program on its SPJ IOCG property to explore zones of high-grade gold and to better understand the area’s overall geological structure. The company said there’s been a “paradigm shift” in thinking about the rocks around Wanapitei that’s led to the area being poorly understood and under-explored.

Sci-News
Subglacial lakes are bodies of water that form beneath ice masses. Meltwater is derived from the pressure of the thick overlying ice, heat generated by the flow of the ice, geothermal heat retained in the Earth, or water on the surface of the ice that drains to the bed. This water can become trapped in depressions or due to variations in ice thickness.
