The Tulsequah Chief polymetallic mine in northwestern British Columbia was given a new lease on life earlier this year when the provincial government officially approved a proposal to reopen the former producer.
Starting in the year 2000, owner Redfern Resources (RFR-T) plans to mill 2,466 tonnes per day at Tulsequah Chief. The project hosts minable reserves of 7.9 million tonnes averaging 6.35% zinc, 1.23% copper, 1.18% lead, 2.42 grams gold and 100.9 grams silver per tonne. Capital costs are estimated at $190 million and the mine life is estimated at nine years.
