Completing New Road To Werner Lake Ontario
Manitoba plans completion of a eastward road from Lac du Sonnet toward Werner Lake Ontario under the roads to resources program. Dinsdale said the Oiseau Lake road connects the Manitoba Ontario boundary to Norpax area, with winter traffic possible but rough segments. Completion would cut freight costs for miners and may attract a smelter and increased traffic if nickel deposits prove two million tons at Werner Lake. International Nickel backs the Werner Lake project with about a quarter million dollars in the mine venture.
