Hundreds of residents take part in open house to find out what the future holds for Sudbury’s largest mining company
Hundreds of Sudbury residents got a close-up look Tuesday at how the largest mining and refining company in Sudbury is moving forward with new technology.
Because the technology is new, and because much of the technology is proprietary, no photography or video recording was allowed there. Christine Gasteiger, superintendent of the IRoC, explained how the centre works as a troubleshooting and problem solving hub for any of the Vale mining operations. Visitors to the event were also able to board a shuttle bus for a tour of the nearby Vale greenhouse, also in Copper Cliff. It's where the company is producing thousands of tree seedlings as Vale continues to contribute to the regreening of Sudbury with a tree planting project.
Also, over the years Vale mine rescue teams have been named the best in Ontario several times. Visitors were impressed with the scope and breadth of rescue work that mine rescuers take training for along with the fact they're all volunteers.
