Elko Coking Coal Project

Elko is a coking coal project located in British Columbia with a 303Mt JORC Resource with a 117Mt in the Measured category. The Elko Coking Coal Project is a multi-seam and multi-product coking coal deposit with all exploration permits in hand. The Company has been reviewing all opportunities to further develop the asset either with a local partner or international coal user.

Increase in Coking Coal Prices

During 2021, coking coal prices have gained in strength, breaking through US$300 per tonne for the first time in 5 years for premium hard coking coal. This product type and range is expected to be produced from the Elko Coking Coal Project. These prices support the Company’s long term view that the Elko Coking Coal Projects holds significant value for shareholders.
