GOLD: One of the largest discoveries in three decades

British Columbia’s northwest is seeing heightened interest from resource companies, said Ken Konkin, CEO and president of Tudor Gold. Tudor Gold is an exploration and development company advancing its Treaty Creek gold and copper project, situated in the Golden Triangle. Treaty Creek project hosts the Goldstorm deposit, which the company says is one of the largest gold discoveries in the last three decades.

The Golden Triangle is seeing renewed focus, says Konkin, due to the infrastructure and safe jurisdiction, as well as the many development projects that are advancing in B.C. The world’s largest gold miner, Newmont, has made the region a top priority since taking out Newcrest and acquiring both its Pretium and Red Chris mining operations in the Golden Triangle.

“Clearly, there’s blood in the water,” said Konkin.
