Mining company eyes processing waste rock from old Blue Grouse site in Cowichan
- Sasquatch Resources is considering processing up to 300,000 tons of waste rock from the old Blue Grouse mining site for leftover minerals, as reported by the company.
- The Blue Grouse site had historical mining for copper, gold, and silver, with waste rock previously deemed too low-grade for processing, according to Pete Smith, CEO of Sasquatch Resources.
- Current assessments show average copper grades of two and four percent in some areas, as stated by Smith, indicating potential for economic viability.
- Sasquatch plans to start processing at the Mount Sicker site first, focusing on reclamation rather than new mining, Smith confirmed.
