members are committed to ongoing improvement and are continually innovating to protect the environment, reduce their energy use and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions. Sustainable Mining (TSM) initiative and through innovations at the mine-site level.

Our corp has teamed up with Sandvik Mining and MacLean Engineering to provide the battery-powered vehicles for almost all of the mine’s requirements. The new technology will range from battery-operated drilling and blasting equipment, to electric bolters, personnel carriers and, ultimately, a 40-metric-tonne battery-powered haul truck. This will eliminate all GHG emissions associated with the movement of ore and waste rock, which contributes roughly 50% of the total GHGs on site, or 5,000 tonnes of CO2 per year.
