About this project
NewRange Copper Nickel, LLC (NewRange), formerly known as PolyMet Mining Corp. (PolyMet), is proposing updates to its NorthMet Mining Project, located near Hoyt Lakes in northeastern Minnesota. In general, project involves an open‑pit mining operation and associated processing facilities designed to produce copper and nickel‑copper concentrates. Because NewRange is seeking modifications to the previously approved 2015 NorthMet Project and Land Exchange, the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is preparing a Supplemental Environmental Impact Statement to evaluate the potential environmental effects of the modified project.
