MMG Resources Inc. (MMG) is planning to do mineral exploration as part of the Izok Corridor Project (the Project). The purpose of this application is to:-Expand the area of two Nunavut Water Board (NWB) Water Licences (2BE-IZO2328 and 2BE-HIG2328)-Expand the area of two CIRNAC Land Use Permits (LUPs; N2024C0021 and N2024C0022)-Start mineral exploration in CIRNAC mineral claim areas that are outside of the existing NWBs and LUPs areas The Izok Corridor has been explored by various mining groups since the 1950’s and is currently held by MMG, who obtained the project in 2009. MMG is resuming mineral exploration activities in the High Lake area and the Izok Lake area. Exploration activities in these areas have been previously reviewed for environmental impacts by the Nunavut Planning Commission (NPC) and the Nunavut Impact Review Board (NIRB). MMG acquired 68 new CIRNAC mineral claims in the Izok Corridor Project Area in 2023 & 2024. MMG’s exploration program for these CIRNAC mineral claims was accepted for review by the NPC on March 28, 2025, and subsequently referred to NIRB for screening on April 16, 2025. On approval from NIRB, MMG will apply for amendments to the CIRNAC LUPs and Nunavut Water Board Water Licences, and the Kitikmeot Inuit Association (KIA) for right of access agreements where mineral claims and leases are located on KIA lands. See attached map.MMG plans to conduct exploration including electro-magnetic surveys and drilling programs starting in spring 2025. Exploration activities may occur during summer, fall and/or winter seasons. Other activities related to exploration may include air or ground-based surveys, mapping, sampling, staking, environmental monitoring, and archaeological studies. On commencement of the exploration program the MMG team will use the Bluestar Gold’s Ulu Camp until the Izok Lake Camp (at Ham Lake) and High Lake Camp is prepared for occupancy.The Izok Lake camp is located approximately 300 km southwest of High Lake and has been in care & maintenance status since 2015. During field exploration programs, the number of people at camp will change depending on the activities, with a maximum occupancy of 30 people. Izok Lake camp can be accessed by plane, using the gravel air strip near camp. The High Lake camp is located approximately 50 km south of Grays Bay and has been in care & maintenance status since 2015. The High Lake camp can be accessed by a float plane on High Lake. A helicopter is normally on site when camp is occupied. During field exploration programs, the number of people at camp will change depending on the activities, with a maximum occupancy of 30 people.Where possible, MMG will use local workers, materials and services from Kitikmeot communities and offer on-the-job training. Small temporary camps may also be used periodically to support limited remote seasonal exploration activities. Any small temporary camps will be located on dry durable ground, where exploration drilling may happen. These camps will be temporary tent camps, will be set up after archaeological surveys have been done, and any archaeological sites protected. Water will be used within the limits listed in MMG’s Water Licences to support exploration activities and camp operations. Transportation between camp sites and exploration locations is mostly by helicopter, with some use of snowmobiles in winter. ATVs are used in the summer/fall in the camps to move equipment and supplies between aircraft and the various camp buildings. Fuel at all sites will be stored with secondary containment. Fuel will include diesel, aviation fuel, gasoline and propane. Drilling water and camp kitchen grey water will be managed per the approved water licence. Either pacto, incinerating, or outhouse-type pit toilets will be used. An incinerator may be used to burn waste like wood, cardboard, and paper. All other wastes will be transported to Yellowknife for disposal.
