Alberta to introduce ‘modern’ coal policy, including ban on new open-pit projects
The new policy will not affect those qualified as "advanced coal projects" such as the controversial Grassy Mountain mine.
Canadian explorer Minera Alamos’ (TSXV: MAI) stock was up on Friday, following the announcement that it has acquired 9.4 million common shares in the capital of Prime Mining (TSXV: EPWR).
As part of the deal, Minera acquired warrants to purchase up to 3.3 million additional common shares of prime at a price of C$0.50 per common share.
