allow the exploration decline and planned diamond drilling program to proceed.
• An introductory meeting was held with the BC M inistry of Mines and Ministry of
Environment in Cranbrook on Tuesday , July 23rd. The meeting with went well , with
everyone being very helpful and all having a positive attitude toward the project. Additional
work will be required which can be addressed in-house and with consultants.
• A Project Description was provided to the Ministry on July 30, from which detailed
information requirements will be determined.
• Environmental work was initiated with a consultant to update the baseline flora, fauna and
water quality information. A suite of water samples was collected and analyzed to
demonstrate close comparison of current water quality with that of previous baseline
information. The information accompanied a preliminary application for water discharge
that was submitted to the Ministry of Environment. The mine currently discharges about
100 imperial gallons of water daily. An acid rock drainage and metal leaching prediction
and control plan are also required.
• Nelson Power proposed a temporary 3-phase installation that will allow up to 400 hp
motors. That will allow time for them to finalize their power study and install a lar ger
service. The temporary service will be more than enough to run the new 74 horsepower
ventilation fan acquired in 2014 , which is capable of suppling 23,000 cfm at a line drive
distance of 1200 metres.
