“Currently in B.C. it takes too long to permit and authorize mining projects and that’s a factor of both levels of government, federal and provincial,” said Goehring, president of CEO of the Mining Association of B.C. Six minerals – copper, lithium, graphite, nickel, cobalt, cadmium – were listed as priorities for future exploration activities in the federal strategy.
