Grande Portage Applies for Special Use Permit at New Amalga Gold Project

Grande Portage Resources Ltd. has filed a Special Use Permit application with the US Forest Service for its New Amalga Gold project in Southeast Alaska. This request focuses on establishing infrastructure for environmental study and monitoring. This includes meteorological data collection to assist in design and permitting decisions, as well as stream gauging sensors to protect fish habitats.

The company plans to use this infrastructure throughout the project lifecycle, encompassing development, operation, and closure. They aim to maintain a low environmental footprint by opting for off-site ore processing. This decision negates the need for a concentrator and tailings disposal on-site, significantly minimizing land usage and simplifying the environmental review process.

The permit application represents a step towards comprehensive data gathering essential for future project development and approval. Grande Portage emphasizes environmental protection and efficiency in its project planning, working on the principles of sustainable development.
