A Cranbrook mining exploration company has been offered a signal honour at the Toronto Stock Exchange this week.
Athabasca Nuclear Corp., a spin-off of Eagle Plains Resources, is part of a four-company syndicate that has been invited to ring the bell opening the TSX exchange on Friday, Sept. 13. Chuck Downie of Cranbrook, president and CEO of Athabasca Nuclear Corp., will be in Toronto to take part in the ceremony.

Its trading day always opens and closes with the ceremonial ringing of a bell. Companies of note, individuals and even charities are often invited as an honour to perform the ringing to open the market.
The Western Athabasca Syndicate, which includes Athabasca Nuclear, is currently exploring for uranium in the Athabasca Basin area of northern Saskatchewan.
