Goldcorp, Lac Seul First Nation sign collaboration agreement
JOHANNESBURG (miningweekly.com) – Vancouver-based Goldcorp has signed a collaboration agreement with the Lac Seul First Nation, setting a framework for continued consultation and support for current and future operations of Goldcorp’s Red Lake Gold Mines operation.
The Obishikokaang collaboration agreement lays the foundation for future benefits for the Lac Seul First Nation, including training and employment opportunities, business and contracting opportunities, and a framework for consultation on regulatory permitting, as well as Goldcorp's future financial contributions in support of community development.
“Goldcorp's commitment to working with First Nations is once again demonstrated with this agreement, ensuring both the sustainable development of the areas in which we operate and the long-term economic benefits for communities,” Goldcorp Red Lake Gold Mines mine GM Chris Cormier said in a statement on Monday.
Lac Seul First Nation chief Clifford Bull added that the agreement demonstrated that the first nation was able to successfully work with industry.
Red Lake Gold Mines is Goldcorp's top-producing mine, yielding 507 700 oz of gold in 2012.
