VICE PRESIDENT OF BUSINESS DEVELOPMENT, PRO DRILLING
"This year, our primary goal was to have 90% of our drill rigs in operation. We have been successful, and currently, nearly all of our equipment is in use."
"Reconciliation reduces variability in feeding the mill, reducing the cost of water, energy, and reagents per tonnage. We also minimize the impact on communities by reducing dilution, as this lowers the tailings per ton of metal produced."
"Our Ferro Potiguar project will use dry stacking systems and will probably be the first iron ore project in the country to use recycled water in its operations."
"Roughly 20 mines have been built since 2010, taking an average of only 1.7 years to complete, which is significantly less than any other region globally. West Africa has an industry-wide track record of delivering projects both on time and on budget."
"We want to get into production in five years. It is ambitious, but relative to the rest of the planet, Québec is the place where it will be possible to get a permit in that timeframe."
