The transportation link from the Buttercup Property is now complete. From the Buttercup Project trucks can now travel from the site all the way to the Grand Anse Sea Terminal. The next phase of work at the Buttercup property will be the site clearing, initially logging, which should commence shortly and in accordance with permits received to date.
"Contractors have completed the access roads to the Buttercup Project, and we continue to move the project forward at a rapid pace" stated Michael Dehn, Fairmont's President and CEO. "The slope of hill that the road was built on proved to be challenging. Our contractors have successfully completed a road that has been optimized for slope mediation so that large trucks, full or empty, should have no trouble traversing it".
About Fairmont
Fairmont's Quebec properties cover numerous occurrences of high-grade titaniferous magnetite with vanadium. Where these occurrences have been tested they have display exceptional uniformity with respect to grade. These occurrences are of considerable interest due to their proximity to tide water, with the Grand Anse Sea Terminal at the Port of Saguenay located within 100km of all of Fairmont's properties.
