$300 Million Murray River coal project inches forward near Tumbler Ridge
BC province invites comments on HD Mining plans to build a coal mine 12 kilometres southwest of Tumbler Ridge. The project, with an estimated $300 million capital cost, relies heavily on temporary foreign workers in early years and faces union and local concerns about job availability for Canadians and ethnic tensions. HD Mining aims to obtain environmental approval with a first phase potentially lasting 25 years, while local leaders differ on training timelines and worker sourcing.
