Conuma Update
Conuma Resources completed its acquisition of Peace River Coal operations from Anglo American. Conuma has been working with Anglo for nearly two years to complete this transaction, which will further strengthen Conuma’s position as a global leader in the production of steelmaking coal.
We are honoured to work closely with Indigenous Nations and our communities to support this acquisition. As we move forward, work will commence to ensure care for wildlife and the environment, especially in the area of caribou conservation and recovery efforts.
