Tribag Mine Zone

The Tribag Mine Zone consists of 6 known breccia pipes; the Breton, East and West breccias were previously mined by Teck Resources Limited from 1966-1972. The former Tribag Mine (“Bretton Breccia”) is the primary target as it has not been drilled in almost 50 years and was never tested for additional mineralization discovered in the area.
