Good morning folks,

Substantial modifications are in the works for Atlantic Golds Touguoy gold mine site.  St. Mary's River Association is calling for a federal assessment.  This site only ever went through a provincial assessment and if proposed today would require the full federal process.  Can you believe terms of the original agreement back in 2008 have still been neglected by the company!

Our province is incapable of protecting our interests and we simply need this to be a federal assessment to help restore confidence in the process.

The Nova Scotia Advocate posts SMRA letter with the link below and a Guysbrough Journal article just out today covers the story which is attached:
