Jubilee Gold Exploration Ltd. - New - Approval for a consent (subject to conditions) in an area where there is no official plan in place

The application proposes a transfer and consolidation of approximately 24 hectares fronting Renabie Lake (PINs 73003-0001 and 73003-0012) from Jubilee Gold Exploration Ltd to the owners of the adjacent (benefiting) lot, Barrick Gold. The proposed lot addition into Barrick Gold’s ownership would allow for buttress work to provide additional support to the mine tailings storage facility located at a closed mining site. The benefitting lands are accessed by Renabie Road.

The proposed retained lot is approximately 37 hectares and is accessed by TMA access road. No construction or site alteration is proposed for the retained lot. Surrounding land uses are vacant private mining lands.
