GALORE CREEK PROJECT The Galore Creek project is a large copper-gold-silver deposit in Tahltan Territory, approximately 370 km northwest of Smithers, BC. Klohn Crippen Berger is assisting project partners Teck Resources and Newmont to advance the tailings management aspects of the project. Work began in 2019 on a prefeasibility study update, building on several years of design work, and continues with baseline social and environmental field programs and the start of major regulatory approvals. Galore Creek is one of the largest undeveloped copper projects in the province and has the potential to contribute significant critical minerals in support of increasing electrification demands. The prefeasibility study is one step on the path to an operating mine. Fieldwork includes: studies and tests of water and flora and fauna; ecosystem, biodiversity, and geohazard mapping; archaeological

studies; and inclusion of Tahltan knowledge, perspective and value. Participants: Galore Creek Mining Corporation; Klohn Crippen Berger.
