The Lynn Lake project involves the redevelopment of two historical gold mines – Gordon and MacLellan – and has an ore input capacity of 8 000 t/d over an 11-year period.

A 2017 feasibility study calculated average gold production of 143 000 oz/y at an all-in sustaining cost of $745/oz.

Components of the project would include new mine infrastructure, openpits, an access road, a central ore milling and processing plant, ore stockpiles and mine rock storage areas, and a tailings management facility.

Virtual open houses will be held during a 45-day consultation period and written comments will be accepted until October 10.

This is the third of four opportunities for the public to comment on the environmental assessment of the project.
