FIRST MINING SIGNS PROCESS AGREEMENT WITH CAT LAKE FIRST NATION AND LAC SEUL FIRST NATION SUPPORTING ANISHINAABE-LED IMPACT ASSESSMENT
SIOUX LOOKOUT, ON, Oct. 31, 2024 /CNW/ - FirstMining Gold Corp. ("First Mining" or the "Company") (TSX: FF) (OTCQX: FFMGF) (FRANKFURT: FMG) is pleased to announce that it has entered into a Process Agreement with Cat Lake First Nation ("Cat Lake") and Lac Seul First Nation ("Lac Seul") which provides important capacity support for the implementation of a community-based Anishinaabe-Led Impact Assessment ("ALIA").
The Process Agreement represents a significant commitment for First Mining and provides the framework for First Mining, Cat Lake and Lac Seul to have procedural clarity and meaningful participation in the review of the Springpole Gold Project ("Springpole Project" or the "Project") through the unique cultural perspective of the Anishinaabe people.
"We are very pleased to support this leading-edge work on community-based Indigenous engagement for the Springpole Project with Cat Lake and Lac Seul" stated Dan Wilton, CEO of First Mining. "First Mining is privileged to be working in the traditional territories of the Nations and we understand and appreciate the significant commitment of time and resources that Cat Lake and Lac Seul are contributing and we look forward to working with the Nations and leadership to continue to advance meaningful dialogue. Springpole has the potential to deliver significant infrastructure and economic benefits to an underserviced area of Northwestern Ontario and we believe that the Project, properly delivered with respect and protection for the land, air and water, can have a lasting positive impact for generations to come".
First Mining continues to meet and work with Indigenous communities and community leaders around the Springpole Project to support awareness, address questions and comments, and invite participation towards Project improvement and planning.
