Can you tell me more about the Project layout? Where will the facilities be located?

  • The majority of Project infrastructure would be in the West Alexander Creek drainage on the toe of Erikson ridge and extending to the top of Crown Mountain:
    • East Pit, North Pit, and South Pit all sit on the west shoulder of Crown Mountain
      • Portions of all East and South pit extend across the ridge line into the Main Alexander Creek drainage
      • Portions of the North Pit extend across the divide into the Grave Creek drainage
    • The Processing Plant would be located to the north end of the Project site just to the south of the divide between Grave Creek drainage and West Alexander Creek drainage.
    • All mine rock storage would be located in pit or in a single bottom-up layer-cake mine rock storage facility in the base of the West Alexander Creek drainage starting directly south of the Processing Plant
    • All Processing Plant rejects and the dewatered tailings will be stored within the bottom-up layer-cake mine rock storage facility (note that this means the Project does not include a tailings storage pond)
    • The main settling pond would be located down stream of the mine rock storage facility near to the confluence of West Alexander Creek and the main Alexander Creek.
  • The remaining Project infrastructure would be in the Grave Creek drainage:
    • A clean coal conveyor would run from the Processing plant down to the Grave Creek Forestry Service Road
    • A clean coal transfer site would load coal from the conveyor into highway trucks to haul coal on the Grave Creek Forestry Service Road
    • Water management infrastructure for the coal transfer site
    • A water reservoir located near Grave Creek
    • A covered clean coal storage structure by the rail load out next to the existing rail line
    • A rail load out, including conveyor and hopper next to the existing rail line
    • Service roads and utility corridors
