Message: .035-A road to the Ring of Fire is 'everything.' Railway? Not so much

Kwg hit .035 today with no news.  Nothing recently except for rail plans.  Could this possibly explain this huge run on SP?  Noront quickly put out this article which seems to squash the rail dream?  10-20 yrs down the road?  KWG a Noront take out target? 

Wonder what Frank has up his sleeve?

A road to the Ring of Fire is 'everything.' Railway? Not so much

Some recent reports of building a railway straight to the Ring of Fire doesn't appear to fit in Noront's plans, for now.

Weston threw some shade on an effort by KWG Resources - a 30 per cent minority owner in one of Noront's chromite deposits - to revive the concept of an ore haul railroad.

To regain some visibility in the Ring of Fire, KWG recently appointed former CN and CP Rail executive Tony Marquis to its Canada Chrome subsidiary to kickstart the company's railroad campaign.

Early mine production doesn't justify the need for rail, said Weston, "because we don't see it as necessary for the volume of material that we would want to move out of the Ring of Fire; not for the first 10 years, probably 20. Down the road, perhaps."

And a railroad doesn't benefit the First Nation communities, he said. The access roads are going in to benefit the communities first, and industry second.

"A railroad, from our view, it's not necessary to start."
