Chief Inspector of Mines Issues Directive and Hazard Alert
Mineral Exploration and Mining in British Columbia
British Columbia’s $5 billion mineral exploration and mining industry is an integral part of the provincial economy.
Competitive taxes, an ample supply of low-cost power, and government's
commitment to the industry make this province an ideal place to invest.
The Mining and Minerals Division of the Ministry of Energy, Mines and
Petroleum Resources manages British Columbia's substantial mineral
resources. The Division implements policies and
programs that encourage the responsible development of these resources
and ensures that all mining activities respect the safety of workers, the
public and the environment.
