Kenora-Rainy River MPP Howard Hampton feels this region will benefit from a gold mine long before the so-called Ring of Fire can be adequately developed.Speaking at the Rainy River District Municipal Association meeting on the weekend, Hampton says the northwestern Ontario has everything needed to make a gold mine proposed by Rainy River Resources possible.
Hampton feels it will be at least a decade before any mine in the Ring of Fire is developed because it lacks the necessary infrastructure.
