Building relationships between Indigenous and non-Indigenous people.
The Lynn Lake Gold Project is located in northwestern Manitoba, near the town of Lynn Lake and Marcel Colomb First Nation’s Black Sturgeon Reserve lands, and will involve the redevelopment of two historical mines to create one of Canada’s highest-grade open pit gold mines.
Creating successful partnerships and local participation.
The Lynn Lake Gold Project is committed to creating training, employment, subcontracting and other opportunities that increase the participation of Indigenous and local citizens.
Alamos has provided many supports for the students at West Lynn Heights School, including providing Mining Matters STEM boxes to the high school students and participating in our first Career Fair which got all ages of students engaged and wanting to learn more. We are excited about the opportunities Alamos is currently providing for our school and community.

Alamos has been an absolute pleasure to work for supporting the environmental field work program at every turn. I am always impressed by local workers who help support the environmental program. Their knowledge of the area, work attitude and overall helpfulness greatly enhances the environmental field program’s success.

Alamos has contributed to our local economy by making training opportunities available for skills development, posted job opportunities and hired residents locally, and supported businesses throughout northern Manitoba for services and supplies.
Town of Lynn Lake
Alamos has a positive presence in Lynn Lake and continues to thrive with endless possibilities for the people. I look forward to seeing their future projects and what they have to offer for our youth and town.

Finally, a company that came into town that’s offering the local people opportunities for training and employment, instead of using our resources and leaving without any benefit to the community.

The spin offs from the Lynn Lake Gold Project for local communities will create a significant impact to socio-economic development by offering jobs, thus increasing the sustainability of local businesses and providing opportunity for new.
