en.Wedoany.com Reported - Robert Cudney, founder and CEO of Canada's Juno Corp., is preparing for the largest exploration program in over a decade at the Ring of Fire mining camp. The company has renamed its holding company, Northfield Capital, to Juno International to highlight the pathway for investors to participate in the immense mineral potential of the Ring of Fire. Another key player is Australian private company Wyloo Metals.

In April, the Northwestern Ontario Prospectors Association awarded Juno Corp. the Bernie Schnieders Discovery of the Year Award for its Big Thunder primary gold discovery. However, media reports have confused the origins of the Ring of Fire naming between Cudney and the late former Noront CEO Richard Nemis (who passed away in 2019).

Going back to the spring of 2006, Cudney met Nemis on a flight from Vancouver to Toronto. "Richard and I had known each other for a long time, and the conversation quickly turned to mining exploration," Cudney recalled. "He mentioned that I might be interested in a project he was working on in the James Bay Lowlands. He was always an excellent promoter and managed to capture my attention. I believe I was one of the first investors."

About a year later, under the guidance of Noront geologist John Harvey, the discovery hole Not-07-1 intersected rich massive sulfides, kicking off the race for what was then an unnamed mining camp.
