ONTARIO - Canada's environment minister Peter Kent and Ontario's minister of the environment John Wilkinson announced on Aug. 9 the establishment of a three-member joint review panel for the environmental assessment of the proposed Marathon platinum group metals (PGM) and copper mine project 10 km from the town of the same name. This is the first time that Ontario has formed a joint environmental review panel with the federal government.
Stillwater Mining of Billings, MT, acquired the Marathon property when it bought up Marathon PGM last year. Stillwater Canada, with offices in Toronto, is the project operator. More information about the project is posted at www.MarathonPGMProject.com.
