Mining supply companies are being matched with opportunities in the southwestern United States.
Ontario’s North Economic Development Corporation (ONDEC) is behind a project to connect small and medium-sized supply and service companies to the gold and silver market in Nevada.
Officials with ONDEC say this will let them develop leads and contracts in international markets.
The $3.2-million Northern Ontario Exports Program is funded by Fednor and the Northern Ontario Heritage Fund Corporation, and will support up to 30 companies over the next two years.
