In 2016, Thackeray Mines & Minerals Inc. unveiled the Quartz Mountain Project, a gold-focused mining operation located in British Columbia’s scenic and resource-rich interior. Nestled within the rugged landscapes of Quartz Mountain, this site marked the company’s first gold-only mining initiative, showcasing its strategic focus on high-value, specialized extraction projects.

The Quartz Mountain site was developed following detailed geological surveys that identified extensive high-grade gold deposits in the region. Leveraging the success and experience of its previous operations, Thackeray established a modern mining facility designed to optimize gold extraction while upholding stringent environmental and safety protocols.

The project incorporated cutting-edge mining and processing technologies, allowing for efficient resource recovery with minimal environmental impact. Quartz Mountain’s location in British Columbia offered logistical advantages, including access to established transportation networks and proximity to markets, enabling streamlined operations and reduced costs.

Community engagement played a critical role in the Quartz Mountain Project’s development. Thackeray Mines & Minerals actively collaborated with local stakeholders, including Indigenous groups and nearby communities, to ensure that the project delivered long-term benefits. Employment opportunities, skills training programs, and investments in regional infrastructure highlighted Thackeray’s commitment to fostering economic growth and supporting local development.
