The NewRange Copper Nickel joint venture brings together two large, well-defined resources (NorthMet and Mesaba deposits) in the mineral-rich Duluth Complex of the established Iron Range mining region of Minnesota. This partnership between PolyMet Mining Corp and Teck Resources Limited will advance the responsible and sustainable development of a new domestic supply of critical minerals for the low-carbon transition. In this presentation we will provide an overview of the projects, the synergies between the two companies, some groundbreaking work Teck has been doing with platinum group minerals, and what NewRange has planned for the next 12 months.
