Business North: Talon submits EAW for nickel mine

“Our team in Tamarack is excited to have reached the milestone of submitting the initial worksheet form to begin Minnesota’s environmental review process, the starting point for any project seeking a permit in the state,” Henri van Rooyen, CEO of Talon, said in a prepared statement. “We have worked very hard and invested millions of dollars to understand the environment and cultural resources in the area where we are proposing the Tamarack Nickel Project outside the City of Tamarack. Environmental data collection started in 2006 and today includes data from the deep bedrock where the high-grade nickel deposit is found, to the surface water in the glacial till layer that contains wetlands, streams, rivers, lakes and homestead wells. This baseline data has helped the team to design the proposed project to safeguard the environment.”
