Vancouver-based mining company Teck Resources says it has received an environmental assessment certificate from the B.C. government to extend the life of the Highland Valley Copper Mine.
Teck says in a release that the positive decision supports the extension for Canada’s largest copper mine.
The mine is located about 50 kilometres southwest of Kamloops, B.C.
Teck president Jonathan Price says in a statement that site preparation work is expected to start shortly along with work to secure additional required permits, with a final construction decision by Teck’s board of directors expected later this year.
