Interesting how several larger copper / gold mines in Western North America have recently been under dispute:

- Rio tinto and Pebble Beach in Alaska (shelved)

- Booker and Morrsion Mine in NW BC (initially declined by BC govt but under review due to court challenge)

- Taseko and Prosperity Mines in Central BC (declined by Fed Govt)

All 3 proposed mines have encountered considerable environmental and FN challenges > this could bode well for SC as we definetly have FN support in a general area where another proposed mine (Fortune Minerals Mt. Klappen coal) is under severe scrutiny by the local FN.

I doubt these recent govt and company decsions are being overlooked by Teck and any other larger mining companies interested in developing in BC.
