Jonsey,

I still believe in the very end..that Timmins will get the smelter and that some of the (ferrochrome) will go to Essar Steel Algoma in the Sault .

Environmental approval for a smelter is a very long and tiring process and the copper smelter in Timmins closed in 2011. You'd be putting a smelter in a town that already had a smelter.

Kidd is closing in 2023. Workers will be available with open arms.

Glencore will not have the hefty reclaimation costs.

There was NO outcry from the public unlike the letters from Residents received in the Sault location
