Nunavut Projects, Canada
The company has a suite of polymetallic base metals and gold assets in the Nunavut Territories of northern Canada.
Our principal assets in this region include:
- the Izok Lake copper, zinc, lead and silver resource;
- the High Lake copper, zinc, lead and silver resource;
- base metal deposits at Gondor and Hood; and
- around 2,000 square kilometres of exploration tenements.
Izok Lake and High Lake
The Izok Lake deposit is a world-class deposit with a mineral resource of 14.8 million tonnes at 12.8% zinc and 2.5% copper.
Izok Lake
The High Lake deposit has a mineral resource of 17 million tonnes at 3.4% zinc and 2.3% copper.
High Lake
A key challenge to successfully developing these deposits is moving concentrates to market from this remote part of Canada with little infrastructure.
The company has committed to advancing the appropriate permitting for the Nunavut Projects and is planning to commence a detailed feasibility for the project in 2012.
