Beyond Rainy River Mine
Engaging Community to Help Build a Plan for the Future
The Beyond Rainy River Mine (BRRM) Project is a community engagement initiative led by New Gold and Rainy River Mine employees to set a new standard in mining to reduce social impacts when a mine winds down operations. Since mining is a limited resource – meaning only so much mineral is in the ground to extract – when resources are eventually all extracted, a mine will wind down operations and close.
While Rainy River Mine’s current life of mine extends until 2031, we recognize that creating a comprehensive social plan takes time, so we have gotten a head start. New Gold’s Beyond Rainy River Mine project seeks to minimize the negative impacts of the closure process on people and communities – our stakeholders – who are connected to our operation, by collaborating early on in the process.
What is our approach?
We will be engaging with those who will be impacted by the mine winding down operations in the future, plus invite others from community to participate to share their insight. Our stakeholders are invited to collaborate with us because we know that hearing different voices, ideas, and concerns will provide the information required to build a comprehensive plan.
We have now launched the Beyond Rainy River Mine project and invite you to learn more and participate by filling out the Beyond Rainy River Mine survey by to November 30, 2023.
