Canadian Copper Inc. Files Environmental Impact Assessment for Murray Brook Project in New Brunswick

Details on Environmental Impact Assessment Submission

Canadian Copper Inc. has submitted its Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) registration documentation for the Murray Brook Project to the New Brunswick Department of Environment and Local Government (DELG), initiating the critical permitting review phase for the company’s regional development strategy.

This EIA registration is a landmark event as it is the first mining-related EIA submission in New Brunswick since 2013. Canadian Copper aims to ensure a thorough review process and secure community support for the project’s potential restart.

Community and Stakeholder Involvement

The EIA registration document will be publicly accessible on the Government of New Brunswick’s website, allowing Indigenous groups, local residents, and other stakeholders to review and provide feedback to both Canadian Copper and DELG.

Engagement with local communities remains a priority. Terry Richardson, Chief of Pabineau First Nation, expressed enthusiasm about mining’s return to their traditional lands, highlighting opportunities for economic reconciliation and growth in Northern New Brunswick.

Role of the Technical Review Committee

The DELG will oversee an iterative review of the EIA registration through a Technical Review Committee (TRC), composed of technical experts from various provincial and federal agencies who will evaluate the submission.

After an initial 30-day review, the TRC may request further information, clarifications, or additional technical studies. Canadian Copper and its external consultants will respond accordingly, with the TRC continuing reviews every 30 days until a final decision is reached.

Upcoming Public Open House in Bathurst

An open house event is scheduled by Canadian Copper in Bathurst, New Brunswick on July 29, 2026, to discuss the EIA registration and the Murray Brook Project in detail. This event will provide an opportunity for community members and stakeholders to engage directly with the company.

Specific details regarding the time and venue will be announced soon, enabling interested parties to learn more about the project’s scope and potential impacts.

Refiling of Interim Financial Statements

Alongside the EIA submission, Canadian Copper has refiled its interim financial statements for the three and six months ended April 30, 2026. This refiling adjusts the comparative period presented in the financial documents.

The company confirmed that no changes were made to the reported financial results for the periods ending April 30, 2025, and 2026, aside from the comparative period amendment.
