FALCO HOLDS THE FIRST MEETING OF ITS COMMUNITY CONSULTATION COMMITTEE

Falco Resources Ltd.'s first meeting of the community consultation committee was held on Feb. 5, 2019.

As part of the environmental assessment process for the Horne 5 project and in keeping with the corporation's commitment to integrate the project into the community and to promote continuous improvement, Falco has organized a committee composed of representatives with diverse backgrounds who are recognized in their respective fields. Forming this committee was a planned step in the stakeholder consultation program that began in 2016. The committee's mandate is to develop a proposal for the Horne 5 project that will foster the harmonious cohabitation of all stakeholders in the region with this mining project of a new generation.

Luc Lessard, president and chief executive officer, commented: "We are impressed with the quality and enthusiasm of the people making up this committee. The members are well known in their respective fields and represent municipal, environmental, scientific, socio-cultural, socio-economic, educational and governmental interests."

He added: "We were particularly pleased during our first meeting to observe first hand the keen interest of these stakeholders for the Horne 5 project. We will surely benefit from their experience in listening to the concerns of people in the area and we look forward to working together to improve the Horne 5 project."
