English River First Nation has been partnering
with other aboriginal groups through Tron Power and Mudjatik
Enterprises for many years. This better enables the local
communities to have their members trained and employed on
these projects. The arrangement is beneficial to all the parties
both in employment and profit sharing.
With a strong management team as the helm,
the First Nation began to penetrate the Underground mining
industry through a Joint Venture between Thyssen Mining Construction
of Canada and created the Mudjatik Thyssen Mining Joint Ventures
(MTMJV) which are exciting and unique ventures that partner
with one of the largest mining contractors in Canada with
several northern Saskatchewan communities on a 50/50 basis.
Four underground development projects in northern Saskatchewan
were awarded within six months of the agreement.
This particular joint venture has become
one of the best known joint ventures in the province of Saskatchewan.
In 2005 Tron Power teamed up with Alliance
Energy Ltd. a well established electrical company out of Saskatoon,
to create a joint venture called AllTron Electric.
