Mount Sicker

Near Duncan on Vancouver Island, Mount Sicker hosted four producing mines — Lenora, Tyee, Richard III and Twin J — between 1895 and 1946. Operating with cut-off grades as high as 8% copper, they left more than 300,000 tonnes of mineralized, acid-generating waste rock on the mountain.

Our grid sampling, hand-auger work and a 528 kg ore-sorting test confirm that this waste sorts into a high-grade concentrate. The plan: mobile crushing and sorting on site, high-grade material shipped off-site, and an estimated one-to-two-year recovery program per area once permitted — closing open shafts and adits as we go.

Copper Road

Two to three kilometres from the original Mount Sicker workings, recent logging activity cut new roads straight through mineralized ground — exposing a volcanogenic massive sulphide system that corresponds with the mountain’s largest geophysical anomaly.

Mineralized rock is visible at surface throughout the area, including in the road construction material itself. A trenching and bulk-sampling permit is in hand, and sorting the sulphides out of the road bed is as good for the environment as it is for the project.

Remediation · Lake Cowichan

Blue Grouse

Beside a recreation area near Lake Cowichan, historic mining at Blue Grouse left large volumes of high-copper waste along with open physical hazards. Sasquatch holds the surface rights — which means we can fix the problem, not just study it.

A sampling program across the waste area was completed and reported in November 2024. Here, recovery and public-land cleanup are quite literally the same job.

Exploration · Quadra Island

Santana

On Quadra Island, roughly two hours north of Mount Sicker, mining in and around 1915 left high-sulphide waste piles with copper, silver and gold still in them — along with the usual hazards of the era.

Large surface outcrops show visible copper mineralization, suggesting potential beyond the waste itself. We acquired the claims in April 2025 and completed a first sampling program that June.

Gold · Near Sardis, BC

Slesse

Eleven mineral claims covering 1,567 hectares south of Sardis, near the USA border — within 150 metres of the historic Red Mountain Gold Mine just across the line, and covering the former Mountain Goat Gold Mines workings. Three further claims are under application to the north.

Sampling on the Canadian side returned gold values up to 700 g/t with significant silver and copper, reported in January 2026.
