Download or read book British Columbia s Mineral Exploration and Mining Strategy written by British Columbia. Ministry of Energy and Mines and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 27 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: British Columbia is a national leader in mining and mineral production. We are Canada's single largest exporter of coal, the largest producer of copper and the only producer of molybdenum. We also produce significant amounts of gold, silver, lead, zinc and more than 30 industrial minerals. B.C. is known for its high-quality metallurgical (steelmaking) coal. Most of the coal we produce is exported to Asia for steel production in areas undergoing large-scale urbanization and industrialization, such as China and India.

This book was released on 2012-12-06 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few knowledgeable people would deny that the field of mineral exploration is facing some difficult times in the foreseeable future. Among the woes, we can cite a worldwide economic uneasiness reflected by sluggish and at times widely fluctuating metal prices, global financial uncertainties, and relentless pressures on costs despite a substantial slowing down of the rate of inflation. Furthermore, management is forced to tum to more sophisticated and expensive technologies and to look farther afield to more remote regions, as the better quality and more easily accessible ore deposits have now been revealed. This rather gloomy outlook should persuade explorationists to cast about for a new philosophy with which to guide mineral exploration through the challenging decades ahead. Once already, in the early 1960s, a call for change had been heard (Ref. 30 in Chapter 1), when it became obvious that the prospecting methods of yesteryear, so successful in the past, could not keep up with the rapidly growing demand for minerals of the postwar period. The answer, a massive introduction of sophisticated geophysical and geochemical technologies backed by new geo logical models, proved spectacularly successful throughout the 1960s and the 1970s. But for both economic and technological reasons, the brisk pace of the last two decades has considerably slowed down in the early 1980s, as if a new threshold has been reached.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The resource peripheries of Canada are contested spaces. In recent decades, governments, resource industries, and local communities have faced the impact of globalization, industry restructuring, and shifting international and national social and environmental protocols. This research investigates how governments, corporations and local governments use socio-spatial principles of territory and scale to distribute economic benefits from resource development. Utilizing a case study of mineral exploration and mining in northwest British Columbia, Canada, I explore how principles of territory and scale are used to define 'places of benefit' within the region through the distribution of economic benefits from corporate social responsibility (CSR) and regional economic networks. CSR networks are composed of large international networks of non-governmental organizations and mineral development industry associations that define standards for the mineral exploration and mining industry. Regional economic networks are composed of multi-scalar government and non-government organizations that create economic development strategies for regional development. My research reveals how governments, corporations and local governments use socio-spatial principles to define which places are included or excluded from accessing economic benefits distributed by these networks. In NW BC, the on-going dispute between First Nation and senior levels of governments, over the title of and jurisdiction over mineral resources creates an atmosphere of 'uncertainty' for investors. Companies, in collaboration with senior levels of government, are using CSR networks to facilitate the continued expansion of mineral development in the region. Whilst the economic benefits of this practice to First Nation governments, mineral development companies and the provincial government have been significant, this research draws attention to the impact of this practice on the regional scale. Non-First Nation local governments do not have the same access to CSR networks and are reliant on developing economic development strategies to capture economic benefits from mineral development occurring in the region. Local governments are restricted by their position within the multi-scalar jurisdictional hierarchy as to how they can engage with companies to attract development within their jurisdictional boundaries. The result is a continued division between First Nation and local governments that challenges the creation of a fully collaborative regionalism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Stake in the Future is a comprehensive study of the Whitehorse Mining Initiative, which was first conceived by the leaders in the Canadian mining industry. The goal was to revitalize the mining industry, attract new investment and forge an alliance with major stakeholders such as government, environmental groups, First Nations, the mining industry, and labour. The book examines the political, cultural, and policy issues involved in developing a new consenus-based approach to resolving land and resource use disputes with particular focus on a national multi-stakeholder initiative in the mineral sector.
