The following is from the Adanac forum on SH:

At peak construction, Adanac expects there’ll be 600 in camp at any given time next October or November.

Once in operation, it’ll drop to the full-time workforce of 300.
Alexander estimates more than 50 per cent of the full-time employees will be from the general regional area, and 75 of those from the local Atlin area.

“Even before we start mining, we’re seeing families moving into town,” he says. “So I think we have a high probably of exceeding those numbers, but that’s estimating right now.”

Geodex can expect these numbers of employees soon. Adanac also report that they have some people already out training in mining. With the current labour shortage Geodex should be starting to think this way as well. I suspect that some of Galore Creek's startup problems are that they did not have enough people trained to carry out the startup efficiently and in a timely manner. A year's delay in start-up beyond the planned period can get very expensive. Hopefully Geodex can see this and plan now.

NB Premier Graham, in his recent speech from the Throne, is planning to bring up to 100,000 new people to NB to work on new and current resource based projects (energy, mining, etc.) so there should be some help from government for Geodex to acquire the labour and additional infrastructure needed for Sisson Brook.
