There was a large audience at Ryan Weston’s virtual presentation for the Sudbury Prospectors & Developers Association this week where he talked about recent progress in the Ring of Fire and highlighted advancements on permitting, partnerships with First Nations, exploration and road access.
The article goes on to explain...
"In making the case for a permanent road, Weston said global warming is making the future of the winter road supply network to the northern communities increasingly ‘precarious.’ The cost of living is ‘enormous’ for many who live there.
"The communities say this louder than anybody, they need all-season roads because these winter roads - because of climate change - they're not going to be as reliable as they once were.
"Developing the Ring of Fire also develops the regional infrastructure for a lot of these remote communities, and generates jobs, and tax revenue for government."
