Responsibility
First Nations
The path that leads to economic and social prosperity for all requires a national commitment to double down the investment in native youth through education and job skills training. In the mining sector, the aboriginal community has taken the bull by the horns - with some First Nations communities partnering with companies to further economic opportunities for their residents. The mining sector has worked closely with First Nations communities.
The Bralorne Property neighbours the southern reserves of three bands of the St'át'imc tribe. As part of Bralorne Gold Mines' commitment to responsible mining, since 2007 the Company has been engaged with band members in addressing environmental and social impact concerns associated with its operations on the property. Building a working relationship with First Nations stakeholders has aided Bralorne in obtaining permit approvals for drilling, exploration and surface development work.
In order to strengthen relations with its neighbours and those most impacted by its operations, the Company created an Environmental Monitoring Board (EMB) which consists of representatives from the St'át'imc tribe, the BC Ministry of Environment and Bralorne Gold Mines. The EMB meets quarterly to review environmental testing reports concerning water, soil and fisheries. The Company also plans to develop developing an Impact and Benefit Agreement that would offer community support programs including job training and employment for interested and qualified individuals.
