About the Company
Rambler was founded in 2004 when Altius Minerals Corporation ("Altius"), a Newfoundland and Labrador based resource company, contributed to the Company's asset base an option to acquire and develop the Rambler property.
The Ming property had been a former underground copper and gold producing mine that ceased production when the deposit reached a then third party property boundary. This neighbouring property was subsequently consolidated before being brought into the Company. The Company now owns a 100% interest in the property.
Recently, the purchase of the Nugget Pond milling facility has allowed the company to accelerate its plans to bring the former producing Ming mine back into production. The Nugget Pond mill has been in operation as recently as December 2009 and includes a fully permitted tailings impound.
The principal activity of the Group is carrying out development and exploration on the Ming Mine Property, a mineral exploration property located on Newfoundland and Labrador's Baie Verte Peninsula.
