Marathon Palladium Project

GenPGM is proposing to construct, operate and decommission an open pit palladium mine approximately 10 km from Marathon, Ontario. The proposed project would include three open pits, an ore processing plant, tailings and mine rock storage facilities, site access roads, a transmission line, explosives factory and magazines, water management facilities, ancillary mine infrastructure and associated activities. The rate of production would be approximately 25,200 tonnes of ore per day with a proposed operating mine life of approximately 12.7 years.

Latest update

December 7, 2021 — The Joint Review Panel determined the additional information provided by the Proponent related to the Environmental Impact Statement is sufficient and issued a Notice of Public Hearing, including the Public Hearing Procedures and instructions on how to participate.

On December 7, 2021, the Panel announced that the public hearing would begin on February 15, 2022. Since the hearing was announced, Canadians are now faced with surging cases of the Omicron variant. Accordingly, the Province of Ontario has implemented additional public health measures that include new restrictions associated with meetings and indoor gatherings. It has also created unprecedented cases of Covid-19 in our communities resulting in staffing shortages within private and public organizations. The Panel needs participants to be prepared for the hearing in order to receive meaningful evidence that will inform the Panel’s conclusions. The Panel believes that the current public health situation in Ontario may have notable implications for participants to effectively prepare for the public hearing. As a result the Panel has decided to change the start date of the public hearing to March 14, 2022. Accordingly, the deadline for written submissions has changed to February 25, 2022.
