Minister of Mines and Petroleum Resources Office, March 31,1962. Herbert Pearson, mining statistician from 1928 to 1961, died in Victoria on January 15, 1962. He was born in Cheshire, England, in 1896, and served in the Royal Navy from November, 1914, until he was invalided out in 1919. He joined the staff of the Department of Mines in 1921 and became mining statistician in 1928. In 1939 he was transferred to the Bureau of Economics and Statistics and remained the officer responsible for collecting and compiling British Columbia mineral statistics until his retirement on August 31, 1961. He was Acting Director of the Bureau of Economics and Statistics during 1942-43, and thereafter until 1955 was Office Manager. In his capacity as mining statistician he had frequent contacts with many of the office men in mining companies, and with the staff of the Department of Mines. From 1915 until hospitalized in 1918, Mr. Pearson served on H.M.S. " Collingwood " in the Atlantic and North Sea areas. That period included the Battle of Jutland. During the 1939 visit of the late King George VI and Queen Elizabeth, Mr. Pearson was presented to His Majesty, who was also on H.M.S. " Collingwood " at the Jutland action. Mr. Pearson was active in the Canadian Legion, and was president of the Britannia Branch in 1942. His death came suddenly, only five months after retirement, survived by his wife, one son, and four granddaughters. He is CONTENTS Introduction _ . - _ .

Beginning in 1960, it is the Report of the Minister of Mines and Petroleum Resources. The Annual Report records the salient facts in the progress of the mineral industry, also much detail about individual operations, including those undertaken in the search for, exploration of, and development of mineral deposits, as well as the actual winning of material from mineral deposits. The Annual Report of the Minister of Mines and Petroleum Resources now contains introductory sections dealing with Statistics and Departmental Work, followed by sections dealing with Lode Metals; Placer; Structural Materials and Industrial Minerals; Petroleum and Natural Gas; Inspection of Lode Mines, Placer Mines, and Quarries; Coal; and Inspection of Electrical Equipment and Installations at Mines and Quarries, each with its own table of contents. A table listing the properties described, in geographic groupings, precedes the index. An introductory review of the mineral industry and notes at the first of several of the main sections deal generally with the industry or its principal subdivisions. Notes in the various sections deal briefly with exploration or production operations during the year or describe a property in more complete detail, outlining the history of past work and the geological setting as well as describing the workings and the mineral deposits exposed in them. Some notes deal with areas rather than with a single property. The work of the branches of the Department is outlined briefly in the section on Departmental Work. This section is followed by notes dealing briefly with the work of other British Columbia or Federal Government services of particular interest to the mineral industry of British Columbia. Information concerning mine operations and some of the activities of the Inspection Branch of the Department of Mines and Petroleum Resources is contained in the section on Inspection of Lode Mines, Placer Mines, and Quarries, early in the section on Coal, and in the section on Inspection of Electrical Equipment and Installations at Mines and Quarries. The section on Statistics begins with an outline of current and past practice in arriving at quantities and calculating the value of the various products. ■ A 9 Review of the Mineral Industry* Mineral products of British Columbia had a value of more than $181,000,000 in 1961, only exceeded by the value of more than $190,000,000 in 1956. Prices for copper, lead, and zinc were substantially higher in 1956 than in 1961. Greater production of gold, silver, copper, and zinc and materially higher prices for copper, lead, and zinc gave those five metals a combined value for 1956 nearly $26,000,000 greater than their 1961 value. The 1956 production also included more than $6,000,000 for tungsten, of which there was no production in 1961. In 1961 greater production of iron, asbestos, sulphur, and natural gas and the addition of nickel, petroleum, and liquid by-products of natural gas went a long way toward making up for the decreases in principal metals, tungsten, and coal. The 1961 total value, $181,079,785, compares favourably with the ten-year average, $167,239,104, and represents a small gain over 1960, $179,595,802. It should be noted that the 1960 figure includes the value of a considerable quantity of copper concentrates carried forward into that year because a strike affecting the Tacoma smelter prevented their shipment in 1959, and that the 1961 figure excludes the value of a considerable quantity of copper concentrates produced at the Craigmont mine, awaiting shipment on December 31 st. The metals gold, silver, copper, lead, and zinc account for 60.4 per cent of the total value of all products in 1961. Other metals, iron, nickel, and by-products of silver-lead-zinc ores, contributed 10.3 per cent; industrial minerals contributed 8.45 per cent; structural materials, 10.95 per cent; and fuels—coal, 3.6 per cent, and natural gas plus oil plus liquid by-products of natural gas, 6.2 per cent. The United States dollar was at a discount in Canada in the first half of 1961 but was at a premium in the second half and averaged a premium of about 1.3 cents for the twelve months of 1961. This gave British Columbia producers of the principal metals, prices in Canadian funds that were above quotations in United States funds. The United States price for silver advanced sharply in the last six weeks of 1961. The United States price for copper ranged from 26.3 cents to 30 cents a pound; the average for the year in Canadian funds, 28.288 cents a pound, is lower than the 1960 or the ten-year average prices. United States prices for lead and zinc were relatively stable. Lead was steady at 11 cents a pound until the end of October, then fell, and at the end of 1961 was steady at 10.25 cents a pound. Zinc remained between 11.5 and 12 cents a pound. Converted into Canadian funds, the prices for lead and zinc are lower than in 1960 and well below the ten- year average. Production of lead in 1961 was greater than for any year since 1943; however, the price was the lowest since 1947, and the value of lead produced has been exceeded in four years of the past decade. Increased output of lead came mainly from Fort Steele and Nelson Mining Divisions and from the fuming of current and reclaimed slags at the Trail smelter. Zinc output was below the ten-year average in both quantity and value. Compared with 1960, the zinc output of Fort Steele, Nelson, and Vancouver Mining Divisions decreased and that of Golden Mining Division increased. Copper increased materially in the Nicola Mining Division, but due mainly to stockpile differences the Nicola gain was less than the losses in other mining divisions. * By Hartley Sargent. A 10 REVIEW OF THE MINERAL INDUSTRY, 1961 All Gold output declined mainly in Lillooet and Osoyoos Mining Divisions because the Pioneer mine did not produce and the French mine was closed in May, 1961. Developments of recent years indicate that the increased output of copper and iron now assured or partly in effect will result in a substantially increased value for metals in 1962 and a still greater value in 1963. The developments include bringing the Craigmont mine into production in the autumn of 1961, and provision for bringing the Kennedy Lake, Zeballos, and Jedway iron mines and the Sunro, Coast Copper, and Bethlehem copper mines into production in 1962. The value of industrial minerals, structural materials, and fuels has increased notably in the last decade; their combined value in 1952 was $23,509,504 and in 1961 was $53,102,693. The greatest gain in that period was in industrial minerals, attributable mainly to asbestos and to sulphur. The substantial gain in structural materials is distributed through that group. In the fuels group, coal has declined since 1956, although the 1961 output exceeded that of 1958 and subsequent years. Production of natural gas, liquid by-products of natural gas, and crude petroleum all began during the decade. Since 1959 their combined value has exceeded that of coal, and in 1960 and 1961 the value of natural gas alone exceeded that of coal. The completion late in 1961 of the Western Pacific pipe-line from Taylor on the Peace River to a junction with the Trans-Mountain pipe-line at Kamloops provided for oil and liquid by-products of natural gas from northeastern British Columbia access to refineries serving most of the Province, assuring greatly increased production of oil. The first commercial production of pig iron in British Columbia began in January, 1961, when the plant of The Consolidated Mining and Smelting Company of Canada, Limited, at Kimberley began producing. The plant operated for most of the year at its rated capacity of 100 tons of pig iron daily. The feed for the new plant is iron residue from part of the iron sulphides separated from the Sullivan ore in the concentrator, and used for making sulphuric acid. The residue is prepared by pelletizing and sintering, and fed to an electric furnace where it is reduced to metallic iron and cast as pig iron. The intention has been announced to expand the plant to produce 300 tons of pig iron a day. Along with this increase will go the doubling of capacity to produce sulphuric acid, and fertilizer made by its use. The production of pig iron does not add materially to the value shown for mineral production, as the credit taken is the value of comparable iron ore less the cost of preparing, the roasting-plant residue, for charging into the electric furnace. The industry thus created is a substantial employer of labour directly, and also provides a market for a substantial quantity of coke breeze from the Crowsnest Pass area and of some dolomite quarried near Bull River. Developments in lode-mining in recent years have included much activity in the Merritt-Ashcroft area and on Vancouver and Queen Charlotte Islands, including exploration and the preparation of four copper mines and three iron mines for production. By far the greater part of the ore they will produce in the next few years will be mined in open pits. In 1961 the total of ore mined at lode-metal operations amounted to 8,392,161 tons. Of this quantity, more than 3,200,000 tons came from open-pit mines. The proportion from open-pit mines will be substantially greater by the end of 1962, and the total tonnage will also increase. However, it is apparent also that some of the iron mines will develop underground operations. Another change in mining practice is the use of a mixture of ammonium nitrate and fuel oil for blasting, both in underground and open-pit operations. This practice has developed rapidly in a very few years, and the use of conventional explosives has been greatly reduced. A 12 MINES AND PETROLEUM RESOURCES REPORT, 1961 Exploration for lode-metal deposits was carried on vigorously in many parts of the Province. Exploration for iron was mainly on Vancouver Island, Moresby Island, and near Kitimat in the mainland coastal area. Exploration for copper was mainly in the Princeton-Kamloops area, on Vancouver Island, and in the area extending northwesterly from Portland Canal to the middle section of the Stikine River. It is apparent that large quantities of milling-grade ore exist in the latter area. During the year, milling-grade copper ore from Mount Washington on Vancouver Island, from Quadra Island, and from Pender Harbour have been taken to Britannia for custom milling. Interest in molybdenum continued, and work was done on properties at Boss Mountain, in the Smithers and Alice Arm areas, and in several other localities. The Noranda company is driving a long adit on the Boss Mountain property. Silver-lead-zinc exploration was concentrated mainly in the Kootenays, and included work west of the Columbia River, north of Revelstoke. This latter area has received little attention until the past few years. It may be thought of as a continuation of the belt that has been so productive of silver-lead-zinc ore south of Nelson and in the Kootenay Lake area. Exploration for petroleum and natural gas was directed toward the Paleozoic rocks of the Fernie basin, the Devonian of the Fort Nelson area, the Mississippian of the Rocky Mountain foothills, the Tertiary and Cretaceous strata of the Nanaimo- Bellingham basin, and the Tertiary of Graham Island. Seismic surveys in northeastern British Columbia were considerably increased compared with 1960, and a marine seismic survey was made near Point Roberts. Geological mapping was done by nine companies in northeastern British Columbia and two in the Fernie-Flathead area, and one company made an underwater geological survey off the east coast of Graham Island. Exploration in northeastern British Columbia included three structural test-holes. Exploratory drilling included ninety-two wildcat wells in northeastern British Columbia, two in the Vancouver-Chilliwack area, and one on Graham Island. A further 142 holes were drilled as development or outpost wells, making a total of 237 wells drilled. The exploratory drilling in northeastern British Columbia resulted in three discoveries of oil and twenty-two of natural gas. The oil discoveries were in the Triassic Boundary Lake zone, indicating a southward extension of the Boundary Lake field and in the Triassic Halfway formation north of Beatton River. Discoveries of natural gas in Middle Devonian carbonate rocks were made west of the Clarke Lake field (one), north of the Kotcho Lake field (two), and west of Kotcho Lake (one). Discoveries were also made in the Upper Devonian, and in the Mississippian Rundle group in the Kotcho Lake area, and in the Permian Belloy formation west of Fort St. John. A total of eleven gas discoveries were made in Triassic rocks, six in the Halfway formation and five in the Upper Schooler Creek formation, north of Fort St. John, and four discoveries of gas were made in the Bullhead group, 25 to 50 miles north of Fort St. John. The number of lode-mineral claims recorded in 1961 was 19,064, 7,316 more than in 1960; the number of certificates of work issued was 16,665, 3,508 more than in 1960. Revenue to the Government from petroleum and natural gas amounted to $15,690,202, including rentals, fees, and miscellaneous, $6,545,301; sale of Crown reserves, $7,641,891; royalties, $1,479,193; and miscellaneous fees, $23,817. Land held for petroleum and natural gas, Under permits, leases, licences, and drilling reservations, amounted to 33,925,009 acres. The average number employed through 1961 in placer, lode, coal, industrial- mineral, and structural-material mining was 11,034. Major expenditures by those branches of the industry included: Salaries and wages, $47,657,250; fuel and elec- REVIEW OF THE MINERAL INDUSTRY, 1961 A 13 tricity, $8,545,316; process supplies (inclusive of explosives, chemicals, drill-steel lubricants, etc.), $16,268,411; Federal taxes, $12,688,742; Provincial taxes, $2,475,567; municipal and other taxes, $2,334,795; levies for workmen's compensation (including silicosis), unemployment insurance, and other items, $2,207,- 376. Dividends amounted to $20,720,239. The lode-mining industry spent $30,304,050 in freight and treatment charges on ores and concentrates. Returns from some operators in the metal-mining and industrial-mineral sections of the industry indicate that they spent more than $10,000,000* on roads, new construction, machinery, major repairs, and alterations. Information supplied by the Canadian Petroleum Association indicates that, exclusive of expenditures for land acquisition and rentals, the petroleum and natural- gas industry spent $59,400,000 in British Columbia. The number directly employed by fifty-two operating and development companies at December 31st was 824. The expenditure is broken down into: Exploration, $41,900,000; development drilling, $11,100,000; capital expenditures, field equipment, secondary recovery, pressure- maintenance projects, etc., $3,100,000; operation of wells, flow-lines, etc., $1,400,- 000; taxes, royalties, and other expenses, $1,900,000. Statistics The statistics of the mineral industry are collected and compiled and the statistical tables for this Report are prepared by the Bureau of Economics and Statistics, Department of Industrial Development, Trade, and Commerce. The tabulated statistics are designed to cover mineral production in quantity and value, employment, principal expenditures of the mineral industry, and dividends paid. The data are arranged so as to facilitate comparison of the production records for the various mining divisions, and from year to year (1951, 1958).f In the 1960 Report, Tables I and II were given new forms, Table VIII has been amalgamated with Table VII, and subsequent tables were renumbered. From time to time, revisions have been made to earlier figures as additional data became available or errors came to light. METHODS OF COMPUTING PRODUCTION The tables of statistics recording the mineral production of the Province for each year are compiled from certified returns made by the operators, augmented by some data obtained from the Royal Canadian Mint, from the operators of custom smelters, and from the records of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Branch of the Department of Mines and Petroleum Resources. The values are in Canadian funds. Weights are avoirdupois pounds and tons (2,000 lb.) and troy ounces. * This does not include expenditures at some of the properties being explored or prepared for production. t In these notes, references such as (1958) are to this section of the Report of the Minister of Mines for the year indicated, where additional information will be found. a 14 mines and petroleum resources report, 1961 Metals Prior to 1925 the average prices for gold and copper are true average prices, but, as a means of correcting for losses in smelting and refining, the prices of other metals were taken at the following percentages of the year's average price for the metal: Silver, 95 per cent; lead, 90 per cent; and zinc, 85 per cent. For 1925 and subsequent years the value has been calculated using the true average price and the net metal contents, in accordance with the procedures adopted by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics and the Department of Mines and Petroleum Resources. Placer Gold The value of placer gold in dollars is obtained from returns received annually from the operators (1958). A fineness of 822Vi is taken as the average for crude placer gold (p. A 16). Lode Metals, Gross and Net Contents, and Calculated Value The gross contents are compiled from the returns made each year by the producers and for any metal are the total assay contents, obtained by multiplying the assay by the weight of ore, concentrates, or bullion. The value for each principal metal is calculated by multiplying the quantity (gross for gold, net for silver, copper, lead, and zinc) by the average price for the year. The net contents are calculated by taking a percentage of the gross content: in lead ores and concentrates and zinc concentrates—silver, 98 per cent; lead, 95 per cent; zinc, 85* per cent of the total assay content; and in copper concentrates, 95 per cent of the silver and the total assay content of copper less 10 pounds per ton of concentrates. Other metals, including by-product metals refined in British Columbia and iron, tin, and tungsten exported as ores and concentrates, are treated similarly, except that quantities and values for several are as reported by shippers for sales in the year. The value of by-product iron ore used in making pig iron at Kimberley has been computed from the value per ton of ore of comparable grade, at the point of export from British Columbia, less the cost of preparing the by-product ore for charging into the pig-iron furnace at Kimberley. Average Metal Prices The methods of computing prices have varied because of changing conditions (1958). The prices are now arrived at by methods given in footnotes to the table of average prices on page A 16. Fuel Coal All coal produced, including that used in making coke, is shown as primary mine production (1959, tables renumbered in 1960). Washery loss and changes in stocks, year by year, are shown in the table " Collieries of British Columbia, Production and Distribution by Collieries and by Districts" (p. 253). * For zinc concentrates shipped to foreign smelters the net contents are calculated as the assay content less eight units of zinc per ton of concentrate. STATISTICS A 15 Natural Gas* Commercial production of natural gas began in 1954. The production shown in Tables I, III, and VIIa is the total dry and residue gas sold; that is, the quantity delivered to the main transmission-line. The quantity is net after deducting gas used on leases, metering difference, and gas used or lost in the cleaning plant. The gross well output is shown in Table 11, page 202. The quantity is reported as thousands of cubic feet at standard conditions (standard conditions—14.4 pounds per square inch pressure, 60° F. temperature up to and including the year 1960, and thereafter 14.65 pounds per square inch pressure, 60° F. temperature). Natural-gas Liquid By-products* This heading covers condensate removed from natural gas in preparation for transmission through the main gas pipe-line. The by-products consist of butane, propane, and natural gasoline. Petroleum* Production of petroleum began in 1955, and is shown in Tables I, III, and VIIa. The quantity is " net sales " (see Tables 10 and 17, pp. 200 and 221), reported in barrels (35 imperial gallons=1 barrel). CO-OPERATION WITH DOMINION BUREAU OF STATISTICS In the interests of uniformity and to avoid duplication of effort, beginning with the statistics for 1925, the Dominion Bureau of Statistics and the various Provincial Departments have co-operated in the collection and processing of mineral statistics. Producers of metals, industrial minerals, structural materials, coal, and petroleum and natural gas are requested to submit returns in duplicate on forms prepared for use by the Province and by the Dominion Bureau of Statistics. So far as possible both organizations follow the same practice in processing the data. The final compilation by the Dominion Bureau is usually published considerably later than the Report of the Minister of Mines and Petroleum Resources for British Columbia. Differences between the figures published by the two organizations arise mainly from the facts that the Dominion Bureau bases its quantities of lode metals on returns made by smelter operators, whereas the British Columbia mining statistician uses the returns covering shipments from individual mines in the same period, and the Dominion Bureau uses average prices for metals considered applicable to the total Canadian production, whereas the British Columbia mining statistician uses prices considered applicable to British Columbia production.
