Twin Metals Minnesota and the building trades sealed a strong partnership Wednesday in advance of the company’s construction phase for the company’s proposed copper/nickel/precious metals underground mine.
Bathed in sunshine under a canopy of partly cloudy skies, company and labor officials were joined by supportive elected officials for a signing ceremony of a project labor agreement between Twin Metals and and Iron Range Building and Construction Trades Council.
It commits Twin Metals to hire union workers for the construction phase of the underground mine once permits are granted.
