Focus for Osisko Mining at its Hammond Reef gold project near Atikokan is on an environment impact assessment.
It's been submitted to both the federal and provincial governments for their input.
President Sean Roosen expects a final report to come back some time late this year or early next.
Roosen says about 500 comments were received, but none the company couldn't address.
Meantime, the company will spend just $7-million dollars on the project this year.
