Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - February 12, 2021) - KWG Resources Inc. (CSE: KWG) (CSE: KWG.A) (FSE: KW6) ("KWG" or the "Company") and its railroad subsidiary Canada Chrome Corporation ("CCC") confirm their support of regional development in the Ring of Fire business plan that they propound.
"Now that railroader Tony Marquis has joined us, our next step is to ask for the purchase order at the Canada-USA Critical Minerals Task Force," said KWG CEO Frank Smeenk. "Then we can all get busy making North America secure in chromium and making Canada's Matawa treaty lands into a unique strategic force in global stainless-steel production."
Added Canada Chrome COO Marquis, "It is perhaps appropriate now to have the Matawa First Nations represented at the Critical Minerals Task Force table on Canada's side, given that this crucial trade commodity is found entirely within their traditional territory. Surely that gives them standing to both seek and sell the customer. Their doing so could certainly give much confidence to the buyer and to the capital markets."
