"The Ring of Fire" is the name given to a massive planned chromite mining and smelting development project in the mineral-rich, James Bay Lowlands of Northern Ontario. The Ring of Fire development would impact nine First Nations.. and potential developers are required "to negotiate an Impact Benefit Agreement with these communities, prior to development." The region is centred on McFaulds Lake, near the Attawapiskat River, in Kenora District, approximately 400 kilometres (250 mi) northeast of Thunder Bay. The Ring of Fire was named when the first significant mineral finds were made in the region, by Richard Nemis,after Johnny Cash's famous country and western ballad. By the fall of 2020, the Ring of Fire was considered "one of the largest potential mineral reserves in Ontario", with "more than 35 junior and intermediate mining and exploration companies covering an area of about "1.5 million hectares". On Wednesday March 29th 2023 many voices of of opposition to developing the ‘Ring of Fire’ rained down on provincial politicians in the Toronto legislature. The opposition came from five First Nations, in northern Ontario. "The Ring of Fire is something that’s being "fast-tracked" without the involvement of our people, more importantly, without informed participation and informed consent.”
