Advanced Explorations Inc. announced that it has entered into an agreement with the Government of Nunavut, as represented by the Department of Economic Development & Transportation, to advance research on alternative energy sources for use in northern Canada. The Company continues to study energy sources for use at its Roche Bay and Tuktu iron ore projects located on the east coast of the Melville Peninsula, in Nunavut, Canada. The Company believes the application of alternative energy sources can supply power and reduce its operating costs for the future mine and allow potential production expansions. Throughout the Arctic, communities and the economy rely exclusively on electricity generated from diesel fuel. With development of the Roche Bay project the use of more alternative power generation options is becoming increasingly attractive. The near shore location of the mine, coupled with access to a deep water port provides strategic partnership opportunities to fully leverage these advantages into a regionally based, alternative energy program. This approach would provide substantial benefits to the Roche Bay project and its surrounding communities. It could also have the potential to serve as a regional hub for Nunavut in producing cleaner, less expensive and more commercially sustainable power generation over the longer term. The company engaged Tetra Tech Wardrop, to prepare a Phase I report that assesses the technical and economic merits of alternative energy systems when compared to arctic diesel. The development of alternative power sources is of real interest to the Government of Nunavut, and as such the parties have agreed to collaborate and share any intellectual property generated from this work.
