About the Property
The Gala Property
The Gala Property is located within the Nan aimo Mining District immediately adjacent to the past
producing aluminosilicate Apple Bay (PEM100) Mine. The Apple Bay mine is located approximately 25
km southwest of Port Hardy, British Columbia on Northern Vancouver Island. It has produced
approximately 871,355 tonnes of aluminosilicate for the production of cement between 2003 and 2015 until
It was put on hold in early 2016 pending resolution of a contract dispute between the mining lease and mine
permit holders.
The Gala Property consists of all the industrial mineral rights of the North Isle Copper & Gold Inc. mineral
claim tenures directly adjacent to the Apple Bay (PEM100) quarry in both a north west and southeast
direction. The tenures cover approximately 18,248 ha and trend for roughly 40km. The Property covers
all the documented areas of known silica and aluminosilicate occurrences (at least seven which are well
known), north of Holberg Inlet, along trend with the Apple Bay Mine.
Granny Smith and Fuji Claims
The Granny Smith and Fuji claims are located in the Nanaimo Mining District on the west coast of Northern
Vancouver Island near the mouth of Quatsino Sound , approximately 42km southwest of Port Hardy. The
Granny Smith claims covers approximately 1029 ha and the Fuji Property 1357 ha.

Both claim groups are underlain by Lower Jurassic Bonanza Group rhyolitic to dacite felsic volcanic flows
which are known to host advanced argillic alteration zones characterized by the presence of aluminosilicates
(often referred to in the local area as geyse rite and/or chalky geyserite). These zones are similar in nature
to the geological environment of quarries at Apple Bay (PEM100) north of Holberg Inlet and Monteith Bay
north of Kyuquot on Vancouver Island.
Aluminosilicate material is used in the manufacturing of cement. Each cubic meter of cement produced is
comprised of up to 30% aluminosilicate. The silica acts as a sinter imparting strength and the alumina acts
as a flux lowering energy cost and speeding up the setting time of concrete.
Regional demand for aluminosilicate and high grade silica is estimated to be in excess of 500,000 tonnes
per annum. The primary consumers are large cement manufacturers and cement board manufacturers.
Regional availability of high grade silica and aluminosilicate products has recently decreased due to the
removal of production from the market of the PEM 100 Quarry and the limited production out of Scatter
Creek deposits. The regional supply is primarily constrained to one producing asset in Abbottsford, British
Columbia called Sumas Mountain. New sources of material with favo urable logistics for bulk materials
are required to fill the gap which exists in the market.
