Done deal

The Matawa and Nipigon First Nations are fixed on one thing these days....chromite. The mineral is the focal point of an agreement both have signed. Matawa Chief David Achneepineskum  says they want to make sure that Cliffs Natural Resources does right by the First Nations.  Achneepeneeskum says his communities should benefit if chromite is taken from their land.  While they have stated that Greenstone is the site they would prefer to see the smelter located, a Thunder Bay location would also satisfy them.
