Vale plans to shut down its long-running Stobie Mine by the end of the year, affecting some 230 employees.

"This is a necessary decision but a sad one," Stuart Harshaw, Vice-President of Ontario Operations, Vale Canada Limited said on Friday. "Stobie has a rich history and has been integral to our success for more than a century.

"However, after more than 100 years of operation, the mine is approaching the end of its natural life. The low grades at Stobie are no longer economical to mine in today's challenging price environment."

Harshaw also said Vale still believe in its Sudbury operations.

"Vale is committed to our future in Sudbury," he said. "Over the past decade, we have invested $4.7 billion to modernize and upgrade our operations. In this prolonged period of uncertainty in the base Mmetals market, we will continue to monitor economic conditions very closely and make disciplined operational decisions in the best long-term interests of our company, our employees and the community."

Stobie Mine began as an open pit operation in 1890, with underground operations getting underway in 1914.

"It's a difficult and sad day for our operation," said Angie Robson, Vale Canada Limited Ontario Operations spokeswoman in Greater Sudbury. "We have been operating at Frood-Stobie for more than 120 years. Lots of our employees and community members, parents and grandparents have worked there over the years."

Robson said the mine had become uneconomical due to several factors, the biggest being falling world nickel prices.

"There's very low grades (of nickel) left there," she said. "We've got low volumes and also low grades ... At current prices, it's uneconomical to mine there." Should nickel prices improve substantially and it becomes economical again, it wouldn't be (re-opening) out of the realm of possibility."

Other factors in the decision included a decline in ore quality and the fact that miners were being prevented from working below the 3,000-foot level due to seismic activity.

As of 1:15 p.m., Friday, nickel was selling for about $4.45 a pound U.S. on the London Metal Exchange. Last month, the price briefly climbed over the $5 a pound mark, but has continued to fall since. There is also more than 380,000 tonnes of nickel currently sitting in LME warehouses.

Robson said there is no firm closing date for the mine.

"We have a transition team working to bring the mine into a state of care and maintenance," she said. "That work is going to start immediately."

The closure will leave Vale with five mines in Sudbury: Garson/Garson Ramp, Creighton, Totten, Coleman and Copper Cliff North.

Vale's current workforce in Greater Sudbury numbers about 4,000.

Rick Bertand, president of United Steelworkers of America Local 6500, which represents about 170 unionized production and maintenance workers at Stobie, said he is hopeful the impact of the mine's closure can be minimized.

"It's too early to tell right now, but we are definitely going to be meeting with the company and follow our collective agreement in regards to the impact on our membership," he said.

Bertand said steps such as having affected miners take on work now done by contractors at other mine sites and doing work that needs to be done at Copper Cliff North Mine and neighbouring Copper Cliff South Mine, which was closed in 2007, will be discussed.

"Maybe there's a possibility for a pension offer to try and save the jobs of our younger members," he said.

Local 6500 represents about 2,700 production and maintenance workers at Vale's Greater Sudbury operations.

Bertrand said that even without the announcement Friday, Stobie only had about two years of life left.

"It's a very low grade (of ore) so it's not an economical grade," he said. "But when the price does go up, it's a possibility it could re-open," he said

With more than 375 million tonnes produced over the years, more ore has been mined out of the Frood-Stobie complex than any other mine in the Sudbury Basin, according to Vale.

The suspension of operations at Stobie will result in a reduction of as much of kilotonnes of nickel and 8 kilotonnes of copper production a year.
