Environmental Investigation Agency US’ Post

Canada is pursuing a speculative gold rush that promises to be just as detrimental to potential prospectors as they were in the past. Though global gold stockpiles are more than adequate, Canada continues to support new gold prospecting projects in the Alaska-British Columbia transboundary region. While only one in 10,000 claims becomes a profitable mine, Indigenous communities, commercial fishermen, and tens of thousands of U.S. and Canadian citizens already know about the high risk that gold exploration and development poses to the wild salmon rivers they all rely upon. Our new investigation reveals a network of over 450 companies that are reaping the rewards of gold prospecting while dumping the financial and environmental risks on downstream communities.

What should the new government do as it continues with the 2022 Critical Minerals Strategy? In June we had our very own Parliamentary Fellow, Lewis Pickett (a Committee Specialist at the House of Commons), who looked at exactly that. "I was looking at critical minerals to get a better understanding of the next steps the UK Government may wish to take. The conversations I had really opened my eyes to the complexities involved with solving this problem, not only practically but ethically too. It can be hard to bridge the gap between policy and academia sometimes, but this placement brought home the value of doing so." You can now read his report on ‘‘Critical Minerals: potential next steps,’ and see what he thinks the potential next steps for the new government should be ➡️ https://bit.ly/3WWonlP

$9 BILLION dollar deal... how much is going to impacted First Nations? never mind how much has been made along the way...... Innovation, Science and Economic Development Canada | Innovation, Sciences et Développement économique Canada has made an announcement approving the sale by Teck Resources Limited to Glencore of the ELK Valley coal resource and business. A $9 BILLION transaction. I would LOVE to know what the impacted First Nations are receiving from the sale proceeds from TECK (is it anywhere near 5% of the transaction value?). And on a go forward basis how do the First Nations benefit with Glencore (do the First Nations earn a royalty on sales? do they have a meaningful equity position?)

White Cliff Minerals Limited (WCN) in the The Australian Financial Review! We are proud to share that White Cliff Minerals Limited (WCN) was prominently featured in The Australian Financial Review over the weekend. The feature by Amanda Ellis delves into our exciting progress in Canada’s underexplored frontiers, where our recent assays have returned some of the highest grade copper, gold, and silver rock-chip samples in recent history. Our strategic positioning and early-mover advantage have already begun to yield remarkable results, particularly at the Great Bear Project. With an impressive silver find of 75,439g/t, we're proving that this ground is as rich as we anticipated. Stay tuned as we continue to uncover the potential of these promising sites and deliver value to our shareholders. The next steps are even more exciting as we prepare for further drilling at both the Great Bear and Rae projects.
