Mineral Exploration Permit for 1000334153 Ontario Inc. - Lake Jean Area
Official title: 1000334153 Ontario Inc. - Mineral exploration permit
A numbered company wants to drill for minerals southeast of Beardmore, Ontario. The Ministry is deciding whether to issue a 3-year exploration permit for mechanized drilling on four mining claims near Lake Jean.
Why This Matters
Live near Beardmore or use the Lake Jean area? Drilling could clear small patches of forest and draw water from nearby lakes or streams. If you hunt, fish, or have a cottage in the area, this might affect you.
What Could Change
If approved, the company could drill on four claims for up to 3 years. They'd clear small areas for drill pads and may pump water from local sources. The permit can be renewed after that.
