The West Red Lake Gold (WRLG) Madsen Mine and Rowan Project are being developed with the principles of Environment, Sustainability and Governance (ESG). As the company evolves so to will the breadth of monitoring, reporting and engagement.
We acknowledge that we are operating within Treaty #3 and the Lac Seul and Wabauskang First Nation’s territory. WRLG has a project agreement with the communities for the Madsen mine and are collaborating on the baseline permitting for the Rowan Project.
There is an active Madsen Citizens Committee that meets regularly to ensure that the mine and community relationship remains strong. The WRLG team has positive relationships with the Mayor and Council of Red Lake and supports community organizations such as the Pow-Wow committee and the Norsemen Festival.
Madsen Mines’ past operations have inherently facilitated ESG compliance, given its adherence to high standards and responsible mining practices.
Our approach involves maintaining positive relationships with First Nations groups, ensuring community engagement, and upholding stringent environmental standards.
Northern Ontario’s access to green power, particularly hydro, further enhances our ESG credentials. As we progress, we remain dedicated to meeting and exceeding industry ESG standards.
