Geoscience BC has recently announced its latest aerial survey to identify hidden mineral potential in north central British Columbia.

Called search phase III, the survey will cover a 9600 square km area located approximately 250 km north of Burns Lake - an area approximately the same size as Haida Gwaii.

Although final details are yet to be confirmed, the area covered is expected to include AuRico Metals’ Kemess Underground Project, a proposed underground copper-gold mine that has recently received its environmental assessment certificate.
