TSXV:OIII | OTCQX:OIIIF - O3 Mining
TORONTO, June 9, 2023
/CNW/ - O3 Mining Inc. (TSXV: OIII) (OTCQX: OIIIF) ("O3
Mining" or the "Corporation") would like to provide the
following update on the ongoing wildfire situation affecting the
communities in Abitibi-Témiscamingue where O3 Mining's main
projects are located. On June 2 and
3, 2023, Quebec's Ministry of
Natural Resource and Forests announced prohibitions regarding
forest access on Crown lands and closed forestry roads for reasons
of public safety, given the current situation related to wildfires
in Abitibi-Témiscamingue. For the safety of our workers and local
communities, and in line with government directives, we have
suspended our field activities until the situation is under
control. We do not anticipate any material impact on our
business.
As part of our continued commitment to engage with local
stakeholders concerning the Marban project, the company had
announced on May 30th the
planning of a neighbourhood meeting to be held on June 13th (Communication to the
Community - Neighbourhood Meeting Marban Project) where residents
and local stakeholders would be able to get further informed on the
different facets of the project. As the wildfires are still an
issue, O3 Mining has taken the decision to postpone the
neighbourhood meeting to a later date. As soon as the wildfire
situation is under control, we will announce a new date for the
meeting.
O3 Mining's President and Chief Executive Officer,
Mr. José Vizquerra commented: "Our
thoughts are with the families in the communities of
Abitibi-Témiscamingue. Our team is in constant communication with
local and provincial authorities to coordinate all efforts during
this difficult time. O3 Mining will monitor the situation
closely and provide updates as the situation progresses."
