Millwright died suddenly after working on refinery equipment at the Detour Lake gold mine north of Cochrane in 2015
A Coroner's Inquest will be held in December into the death of Denis Millette, a 52-year-old millwright who died in 2015 at the remote Detour Gold mine property north of Cochrane, Ontario.
The news release said the inquest will examine the circumstances surrounding Millette’s death. The jury may make recommendations aimed at preventing future deaths in similar circumstances. The inquest is expected to last seven days and hear from approximately 15 witnesses, said the release. Cyanide reactors are considered extremely dangerous and permission was required to enter the locked enclosure where they are located. Millette was given permission, but was not fully aware of the danger involved, said a previous court hearing.
