NMG is mapping its execution strategy for the Phase-2 Matawinie Mine and Becancour Battery Material Plant to ensure swift start of construction as soon as FID is reached. NMG selects Pomerleau for pre-construction management; focus on construction sequence and logistics, budget revisions, procurement strategy, HSE preparation, etc. Pomerleau brings extensive experience in major infrastructure construction, excellent track record in safety, quality and environmental management, skilled and stable team with access to pool of workers and contractors, and civil works self-perform capabilities.

Work to refine CAPEX estimates in light of advanced engineering, stabilizing material costs, technological enhancements, and synergies between sites is expected to generate cost optimization.
