Economic Prosperity without Compromising the Environment
We seek to minimize the KUG Project’s environmental footprint through implementing industry leading, environmentally responsible practices in all phases of the mining life cycle. We view effective management of the environmental effects from our operation that are developed in collaboration with and respectful of Tse Keh Nay First Nations and other Indigenous peoples’ rights, culture and way of life and their traditional knowledge as critical to our success as an organization.
The project has received the required Environmental Assessment approval for the Company’s wholly-owned Kemess Underground Project (“the Project”). On March 15, 2017, the Canadian Environmental Assessment Agency (“CEAA”) issued a positive Decision Statement and the British Columbia Environmental Assessment Office (“EAO”) granted an Environmental Assessment Certificate for the Project. These decisions conclude the Project’s environmental assessment review process and there are no further major provincial or federal environmental assessments or approvals required aside from regular course permitting.
The EAO managed the Environmental Assessment for the Kemess Underground Project in a Substituted Process on behalf of British Columbia and CEAA, the latter of which is on behalf of the Federal Government of Canada.
