RNC’s Dumont Nickel Project is one of the world’s largest
undeveloped, permitted and shovel ready nickel sulphide deposits. Dumont
is a mammoth deposit located near the town of Amos, in the
municipalities of Launay and Trécesson, in the established Abitibi
mining camp in the mining-friendly Canadian province of Québec. When in
production, it is expected to rank as the fifth-largest nickel sulphide
operation in the world by annual production – only the mining operations
at Norilsk (Russia), Jinchuan (China), Sudbury (Ontario, Canada),
Voisey’s Bay (Newfoundland and Labrador, Canada) will be larger.
Dumont Expected to Be Among Largest Nickel Sulphide Operations
(RNC 105ktpd (LOM) vs. 2012 production for other projects) (Mlbs/year)
The Dumont deposit contains approximately 6.9 billion pounds of
nickel in the proven and probable reserve categories (a proven and
probable reserve of 1,177 million tonnes at 0.27% nickel) and 9.75
billion pounds of nickel resources in the measured and indicated
category (a measured resource of 372 million tonnes at 0.28% nickel and
an indicated resource of 1.29 billion tonnes at 0.26% nickel). In the
inferred resource category there is approximately 2.9 billion pounds of
nickel (500 million tonnes at 0.26% nickel). Once in operation, the mine
will produce nickel for over 30 years. Construction and operation of
the mine and processing facilities will be made easier by the existence
of excellent infrastructure, including roads, rail and access to
low-cost power.
Ores from the mine will be processed using proven, conventional methods into a high-grade nickel concentrate, and then transported for further refining elsewhere. The mine will have no acid-generating rock or tailings, which has beneficial implications for environmental management.
