It all begins with an idea. Maybe you want to launch a business. Maybe you want to turn a hobby into something more. Or maybe you have a creative project to share with the world. Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference.

Magnesium Production
The Minago Ni/PGM deposit sits under about 60 m of dolomite (a type of limestone) cover-rock. Development of the Ni/PGM deposit will first require quarrying 111 million tonnes of dolomite.

Minago Nickel/PGM
The Minago Critical Minerals Project is different. Environmental permitting is almost complete. The project not only has First Nation support but is 100% owned by the Norway House Cree Nation (NHCN).

Minago Camps
The NHCN remote camps have the capacity to accommodate 124 people in 9 different camps. Some are fully equipped with kitchen and dining facilities - perfect for mine, forestry and construction crews.
