VANDERHOOF – There hasn’t been much mining activity in this region of late, save the Mount Milligan project. But two gold mining projects are slated to move ahead: Blackwater Gold south of Vanderhoof and Cariboo Gold at Wells.
For the community of Vanderhoof, Artemis’ decision to forge ahead after buying the project from New Gold, is music to the ears. But Brian Frenkel with the District of Vanderhoof says the whole region will see the economic impacts.
