The Canadian Chrome Company Inc. (CSE: CACR) has issued a response to clarify misunderstandings regarding their August 28, 2025 news release about the Ring of Fire development project. The company, through its subsidiary Canada Chrome Corporation (CCC), has arranged for Gitchiziibii Company to act as an interim trustee for the Corridor Claims, which are intended to be transferred to an Indigenous Enterprise benefiting Matawa First Nations members.
The company's vision includes developing transportation and electrification systems along the Corridor Claims to serve both mining operations and Indigenous communities.

KWG Resources (CSE: CACR) has signed a significant Memorandum of Understanding with British trading house Maclaine Watson & Co on April 16, 2025. The collaboration aims to restore Maclaine Watson's dealer seat on the London Metal Exchange (LME) and explore the possibility of trading chromium metal in LME's twice-daily ring auctions.
The partnership is particularly notable as chromium has been designated as a critical mineral by the USA. The initiative could establish a important terminal market for chrome in stainless steel-making, benefiting Canada's development capital hedging mechanisms and improving access to global markets.
Maclaine Watson & Co, established in the early 19th century, was previously an LME ring-dealing member until 1985, with operations across London, Indonesia, and Singapore. The MOU specifies that neither party will have any financial obligations to the other.
