The Stobie Mine is an open-pit operation that produces copper and nickel, forming a key part of Vale’s Sudbury operations.
"Vale, our Canadian First Nation partners, and United Steelworkers L6500 and L2020, to provide the metals that are vital to North America’s transition to clean energy"
This unique project has Thiess working closely with the United Steelworkers (L6500 and L2020), as well as local First Nations businesses, Z’gamok Construction LP (ZCLP) and Aki-eh Dibinwewziwin Limited Partnership (ADLP) to extract critical minerals from the property.
By working with ADLP and ZCLP, Thiess is collaborating with three Canadian First Nations - Atikameksheng Anishnawbek and Wahnapitae First Nation under Aki-eh Dibinwewziwin Limited Partnership (ADLP) and Sagamok Anishnawbek, to present a full mining services proposal to Vale with meaningful First Nation participation.
Thiess’ scope of works includes mining operations, site management, and efficient extraction of valuable copper and nickel resources, asset management, site rehabilitation, and environmental monitoring.
We are also focused on ensuring safety, environmental sustainability, and operational excellence throughout the project.
