  • November 2013: Wally Bannon noted that First Nations missed out on opportunities during the development of the Musselwhite Mine due to a lack of preparation.[2]
  • December 2015: The mine is governed by an agreement between Goldcorp, several First Nations, and government bodies. By 2015, 10% of the mine's employment came from signatories or affiliate communities to the agreement and more than 20% from First Nations. The Musselwhite Agreement includes provisions for revenue sharing, education, and environmental liaison committees.[3]
  • July 2016: The mine hired Ashley Anderson as an operator following her training with ORIGIN Recruitment and Operator Training.[4]
  • December 2018: Virtual reality footage for ORIGIN was filmed at this Goldcorp site to create realistic training simulations.[1]
