Keystone Pipeline restarts after oil spill in North Dakota
Crude oil pipeline operator South Bow Corp. says its Keystone system has restarted after a rupture last week in North Dakota.
The Calgary-based company says it has repaired and replaced the affected pipe and recovered most of the more than 556,000 litres that leaked onto farmland.
South Bow says it's now working to clean up soil at the site of the rupture.
It says the pipeline, which runs from southeast of Edmonton to the U.S. Gulf Coast, is pumping at a lower pressure as it returns to service.
There was no word on what caused the break, but an employee reported hearing a "mechanical bang" before shutting down the pipeline on April 8.
The Keystone Pipeline was constructed in 2010 at a cost of $5.2 billion US by TC Energy, which spun off its crude pipelines into a new company, South Bow, late last year.

Parker: Calgary firm Carbon Upcycling turns industrial waste into valuable cement products
Article content Calgary-based Carbon Upcycling is making great strides in its mission to convert carbon emissions and industrial waste byproducts into valuable, local materials for low-carbon cement production. Its groundbreaking technology offers a productive solution for CO2 emissions and industrial waste materials by upcycling them into low-carbon supplementary cement products. Article content Article content In the few years since it was launched in 2015, the company has attracted the interest of a large number of major cement companies and has forged a strategic partnership with TITAN Group, one of the world's leading international businesses in the building and infrastructure materials industry. Article content The companies entered a memorandum of agreement earlier this month to explore the commercial development of Carbon Upcycling's technology for producing local, low-carbon building materials. The collaboration builds on TITAN's earlier investment in the Calgary company and underscores both companies' shared commitment to accelerating the decarbonization of the building materials industry. Article content 'Expanding the scope of our partnership with Carbon Upcycling from investment to project exploration aims to scale up production of innovative, high-performance cementitious solutions in line with our Green Growth Strategy 2026,' says Leonidas Canellopoulos, chief sustainability and innovation officer of TITAN Group.

About Cascadia Cascadia is a Canadian junior mining company focused on making new copper and gold discoveries the Yukon and British Columbia. Cascadia's flagship Catch Property in the Yukon hosts a brand-new copper-gold porphyry discovery where inaugural drill results returned broad intervals of mineralization, including 116.60 m of 0.31% copper with 0.30 g/t gold. Catch exhibits extensive high-grade copper and gold mineralization across a 5 km long trend, with rock samples returning peak values of 3.88% copper, 1,065 g/t gold, and 267 g/t silver. In addition to Catch, Cascadia is conducting exploration work at its Macks and Milner properties – recently staked Catch analogues within Yukon's Stikine Terrane which have additional copper porphyry targets. Cascadia has approximately 70 million shares outstanding and its largest shareholders are Hecla Mining Company, Michael Gentile and Barrick Gold. QA/QC The technical information in this news release has been approved by Andrew Carne, VP Corporate Development for Cascadia and a qualified person for the purposes of National Instrument 43-101. The Mineral Resources and economic analysis disclosed here are referenced from the 2023 Technical Report on the Carmacks Project Preliminary Economic Assessment, authored by SGS Canada Inc. for Granite Creek Copper, and have not been independently reviewed by Cascadia. Mineral Resources are reported based on a 0.30% copper cut-off for mineralization classified as in-pit, and a 0.60% copper cut-off for mineralization classified as below-pit. Copper equivalent value assumes metal prices of $3.75/lb copper, $2,000/oz gold, $25/lb silver, $12/lb molybdenum, and recoveries of 82% for copper, 70% for gold, 69% for silver, and 70% for molybdenum. The results of the Carmacks preliminary economic assessment are preliminary in nature, it includes inferred mineral resources that are considered too speculative geologically to have the economic considerations applied to them that would enable them to be categorized as mineral reserves, and there is no certainty that the preliminary economic assessment will be realized. Prospecting grab samples referenced in this release represent highlight results only, and include results from 2024 and previous seasons. Below detection values for copper, gold and silver have been encountered in grab samples in these target areas. For more details on Catch drilling and prospecting results, please see Cascadia's News Releases dated July 25, 2024, and July 19, 2023. On behalf of Cascadia Minerals Ltd.
