The Carmacks Copper project is a mine located 198 kilometres north of Whitehorse on the Traditional Territory of the Little Salmon/Carmacks and Selkirk First Nations.
The mine is expected to be a low-cost producer of cathode copper. The operation employs solvent extraction and electro-winning techniques to recover oxide copper.
