This is super important. Understand that in the late sixties, five large international mining corporations went into NorthWest BC and each located five prospects able to sustain industrial grade copper mining. Thay translates into a minimum of 25,000 tpd times 25 times and these often end up producing 250,000 tpd. however described it is a global vcopper rersource able to imagine several mil;ipn tpd mining rate producing in excess of twenty million pounds of copper per day or twenty thousand tons per day of raw metal. This is potentially almost seven million tons per year which compares with global production today of 21,000,000 tons.
So yes, building that power line is realy important and way more important than rail haulage initially, though that is obviously coming as well. We may finally get a west coast smelter as well however nasty. although we have smelters in Eastern Canada.
I like this picture because this is as large as any mine actually gets. If that were afarm field ,and it likely once was, it could support a 1000 cows. when reclaimed it will surely suport a 1000 cows.
