Thesis Gold & Silver: A More Responsible Kind of Mining

Deep in the Toodoggone district of northern British Columbia, roughly 1,000 kilometres north of Vancouver, sits one of the largest undeveloped gold and silver deposits in Canada. The Lawyers-Ranch project – named for two distinct mineralised areas within the same claim block – is the sole asset of Thesis Gold & Silver, a Vancouver-headquartered company that has spent eight years laying the groundwork to bring it into production.  

With an estimated mine life of 14-20 years, Thesis executives believe this project could be a "company builder".  The project sits within Thesis’ claims block, which cover about 500 square kilometres, the majority of which remains underexplored. What has been found so far is, geologically speaking, the surface expression of something potentially much larger – geologists believe the visible deposits may be the upper reach of a deeper porphyry system, characterised by high concentrations of gold, silver and base metals like copper. 

In this video, hear from the firm’s EVP of External Affairs & Sustainability, Stephen Crozier, as he talks about the plan for the project and the new kind of philosophy he and the Thesis team are hoping to bring to mining.
