Project Components

Below is a list of the key Project Components for the Tenas Project. Much of what is listed below is typical for a small mining project. This list is subject to change.

Overview

• Open Pit Operation
• Conventional Excavator/Truck Operation
• Producing 775,000 to 825,000 t/year of metallurgical coal for sale
• Expected Mine Life (construction to completion of reclamation) is 25 years
• Expected Footprint of operation (including rail, powerline, and Bypass road) ~1,050 ha

Transportation

• An 11 kilometre Bypass Road for mine traffic once constructed
• Rail infrastructure that includes a 2.5 kilometre rail loop connection to the existing CN Railway line
• Improvements to 6.5 kilometres of existing forestry service roads
• Haulroads and access roads within the minesite

Mine Infrastructure

• Coal Processing Plant
• Coal handling systems for run of mine coal, processed rock, and processed coal (including plant conveyors, storage bins, and stockpiles)
• Storage piles for rock, processed rock, and overburden and stockpiles for topsoil, processed coal and processed rock
• Administration, first aid, maintenance, mine dry, laboratory, light vehicle, mine rescue, and warehouse buildings
• Surface water management infrastructure (ditches, sedimentation, control, management, and storage ponds)
• Water supply wells, storage, and distribution network
• Fuel and lubricant storage facilities and distribution network
• Explosives magazine, storage silos, and vehicle wash and maintenance facilities
• Propane storage facilities and distribution network
• Solid waste management systems including landfill, recycling and composting facilities
• A 3.5 km long 25 kV powerline and a 25 kV to 600V substation adjacent to the Coal Processing Plant
• A permanent bridge over Goathorn Creek
