The Manitoba site boasts two active mines and a milling facility, employing around 900 employees. Spanning 250 acres, the operation sits within a globally renowned nickel deposit discovered in 1956. Since 1961, Vale's Thompson operations have been committed to producing high-quality nickel while prioritizing safety, sustainability, and meaningful engagement with our community and Indigenous partners.
