Aki-eh Dibinwewziwin Limited Partnership (ADLP), the First Nation partnership formed between Atikameksheng Anishnawbek, Wahnapitae First Nation, and Technica Mining, is proud to announce the addition of Anmar Mechanical & Electrical as a minority operating partner.

The partnership marks a significant expansion of ADLP’s industrial and mining service capabilities across Northeastern Ontario and reinforces a shared commitment to meaningful Indigenous economic participation.

ADLP was originally established through a meaningful partnership between Technica Mining and the two host First Nations. It is rooted in a shared belief that the rights holders—Atikameksheng Anishnawbek and Wahnapitae First Nation—should directly participate in the prosperity generated by resource development within their traditional territories.

“ADLP represents far more than a business arrangement” said Mario Grossi, President & CEO, Technica Mining. “It represents a belief that industry can lead economic reconciliation through partnership, collaboration, and shared opportunity.”

Since inception, ADLP has already generated more than $6 million in economic reconciliation and direct contributions through mining-related services and operations.

“Atikameksheng Anishnawbek is extremely pleased to welcome Anmar Mechanical & Electrical into the ADLP family” said Gimaa Craig Nootchtai, Atikameksheng Anishnawbek. “This partnership represents another major step forward in building long-term economic prosperity for our Nation, our Debendaagziwaad, and our entrepreneurs. Anmar has built a strong reputation throughout the mining and industrial sectors for delivering high-quality workmanship, professionalism, safety, and operational excellence. Their decision to partner with ADLP demonstrates a genuine commitment to advancing economic reconciliation through meaningful action and collaboration. We are grateful to the ownership and entire Anmar team for recognizing the importance of creating shared prosperity within our traditional territories and for helping expand future opportunities in employment, training, procurement, and Indigenous business development for our people.”

“Wahnapitae First Nation is proud to welcome Anmar Mechanical & Electrical as a partner in ADLP” said Chief Larry Roque, Wahnapitae First Nation. “This addition strengthens our ability to create meaningful economic opportunities for our members while continuing to build a partnership founded on respect, trust, and shared prosperity. ADLP demonstrates what can be achieved when Indigenous Nations and industry work together as true partners, ensuring that the benefits of development within our traditional territories are shared for generations to come.”

With the addition of Anmar Mechanical & Electrical, ADLP now significantly expands its service offering to include:

• Underground mining services
• Surface mill operations
• Smelting and refinery support
• Mechanical services
• Electrical services
• Civil services
• Industrial construction and maintenance

The addition of Anmar is expected to substantially increase future economic participation and long-term opportunity for both Atikameksheng Anishnawbek and Wahnapitae First Nation.

“Anmar is proud and grateful to join the ADLP partnership alongside Technica Mining, Wahnapitae First Nation, and Atikameksheng Anishnawbek” said Gianni Grossi, President, Anmar. “We value the opportunity to build strong, meaningful relationships rooted in collaboration, shared success, and long-term benefits for our communities and partners. We look forward to contributing to the continued growth and success of the partnership.”

The partnership serves as an example of industry-driven economic reconciliation — achieved through voluntary collaboration rather than regulatory obligation.
