New Gold Committed To Barwick Area Mine

New Gold says it’s committed to continuing the work started by Rainy River Resources in the development of a new gold mine north of Barwick.
The Vancouver-based mining company has announced it will be taking control of Rainy River in a friendly take-over bid.
President Bob Gallagher says they intend to do a thorough review of the project, but have no plans to shelve it.
Gallagher says one of the first jobs is to get to know the area and its people.
He notes they also intend to honour the agreements Rainy River Resources signed with area First Nations.
Gallagher says they’d being eyeing Rainy River Resources for almost two years before putting forward a bid for the company.
