All the mines mentioned are low grade or gold except iron and do we really need another iron ore mine or gold mine. Unless it is close to our new ferro-chrome and steel producers. I vote for somewhere between Thunderbay and Sudbury. I personally like Arolands and Sualt St Marie idea over Timmons unless the rail comes from Moosenee. Noront has the only high grade needed product mine available for start. All that is needed is the first road in. There are other nickel mines but none that can produce at such a low commodity price.
We need a decision on the corridors.....NOW.....Road first, then the rest of the decisions can be made. Rail only is the wrong way.
