Labrador City ordered evacuated as wildfire approaches

Toronto, July 13, 2024

Iron Ore Company of Canada is initiating a safe and coordinated temporary shut down of its

operations in response to the Provincial Government's evacuation order for Labrador City. The

order stems from extreme fire behaviour that has occurred yesterday and is expected to continue

into today. The fire has the potential to grow significantly closer to Labrador West over the next 24

to 48 hours.
