The strike action covers all unionized construction workers in Québec, and has resulted in a limited interruption of construction activities on the 97km segment of the Renard Mine Road currently under development by Stornoway.
The Renard Diamond Project, which will be Québec’s first diamond mine, is located approximately 250 km north of the Cree community of Mistissini and 350 km north of Chibougamau in the James Bay region of north-central Québec.
