Effets de la consultation

Comments received were considered in the decision.

The one comment submitted included concerns regarding topics that are not within the mandate of the Ministry of Mines. These included potential impacts on tourism, cottage recreation, use of a public boat launch by the permit holder to move equipment to the site, concern regarding use of a semi-private access road (maintained by homeowners) for transport of heavy equipment, and the potential to impact an established portage trail into Quetico Provincial Park.

The Ministry of Mines has the legislative responsibility to allow specific exploration activities on the claims by issuance of a permit. The Ministry of Mines does not regulate the route and strategy used by the permit holder to mobilize equipment to the location of their claim. As such, there have been no conditions added to the permit as a result of this comment received through the ERO.

Détails de la proposition

2758145 Ontario Ltd. has submitted an application to the ministry for an exploration permit as required under the Mining Act for prescribed early exploration activities.

The activities that this permit would allow the proponent to carry out are as follows:

  • mechanized surface stripping (greater than 100 square metres in a 200 metres radius)
  • mechanized drilling (where the drill weight is greater than 150 kilograms)

The potential disturbance from the activities are described as:

Mechanized Surface Stripping: uses heavy equipment to remove vegetation and soil (overburden) from bedrock. The potential environmental disturbance includes (but are not limited to): use of heavy equipment such as bulldozers, backhoes, excavators or forest harvest equipment, to remove soil from the bedrock, washing the bedrock by pumping water from nearby lakes, rivers or streams, and creation of access trails.

Mechanized Drilling: provides rock samples from below the surface. Testing the samples determines the properties of the soil and rocks, including mineral and metal content. Potential environmental disturbances include (but are not limited to): clearing surface terrain for “drill pads” (small areas cleared for drill rigs and/or helicopters), installing casings (hollow steel pipes called the collar), and pumping water from a sump, nearby lakes, rivers or streams.

Proponents are required to follow provincial standards for early exploration to minimize the impacts to public health, safety and the environment from early exploration activities described above. You can find the standards in the Activities Information Sheets or on the Ministry website under Mining Act Policies, Standards and Directives (see links in “Related links” section).

This notice is provided to receive comments that can be considered in the decision-making process prior to the issuance of an exploration permit.

An Exploration Permit does not relieve the proponent from compliance with any other requirements that are set out under the Mining Act or any other Act. All activities included in the Exploration Permit proposal must be carried out in compliance with Ontario Regulation 308/12 and the Provincial Standards for Early Exploration. The Exploration Permit duration will be up to 3 years with the possibility of renewal.
