Development of Biodiversity Assessment Techniques for Mine Closure Planning

The goal of the project is to assess the biodiversity of a unique set of glacially derived kettle lakes on the
Glencore property in Sudbury and to return to a remote set of lakes in Killarney Wilderness Park that were
once impacted from smelter air emissions. Now 25 years later and following 98% reduction in air pollution
the new biodiversity survey will reveal the benefits of clean air technology.
