  • March 2015: Noront Resources supports an east-west corridor that aligns the interests of mineral proponents, First Nations, and government levels. The company prioritizes hiring local First Nations people and reported that a significant portion of its exploration camp staff are Indigenous. Noront Resources hired a graduate from the Ring of Fire Aboriginal Training Alliance to work as a cook-medic.[2]
  • January 2018: The company is considering Thunder Bay, Sault Ste. Marie, Sudbury, and Timmins as potential sites for a new ferrochrome production facility. The proposed plant would process chromite into ferrochrome, a material required for the production of stainless steel.[1]
