B.C. Provides $3M for Mine, Geothermal Exploration Near Prince George (Business in Vancouver)


A heretofore underexplored region west of Prince George will see enhanced geological surveying, thanks to $3 million in new funding from the B.C. Ministry of Energy and Mines.

The funding – announced at the Minerals North 2014 conference in Vanderhoof May 22 – will be used by Geoscience BC for its Targeting Resources for Exploration and Knowledge (TREK) project to explore for both mineral formations and geothermal heat sources.
