Message: Crowflight Ships First Concentrate From Bucko Lake Nickel Mine

September 2008

Environment

At the end of March, Crowflight was granted its Environment Act License

from the province of Manitoba. This permit allows Crowflight use a landbased

tailings storage facility for up to 12 months’ worth of tailings. The

area for the land-based storage facility was cleared this spring and work

on the structure has been on-going all summer.

Crowflight is still engaged in the process of securing federal environmental

permits for the use of Bucko Lake as a Tailings Impoundment

Area (TIA) for long-term tailings storage. The next milestone will be the

release of the screening report for public comment in the fall. Local

community meetings will then be held sponsored by Environment Canada

as part of the federal permitting process.
