The Tahltan Central Government has expressed the Nation’s opposition to Doubleview Gold’s operations.
Planned for the Hat Property northwest of Telegraph Creek, Doubleview has been setting up drill holes to explore potential gold deposits.
However, with their territory-wide land use planning, the TCG feels they must take steps to protect sensitive cultural resources.
In 2021, the pair signed a Communication and Engagement Agreement which laid out terms for Doubleview when engaging with the nation.
Though the TCG says that when a company does not meaningfully engage with the nation, it makes support harder to earn.
With that, the nation hopes that following BC’s passing of the Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Doubleview is not granted further permits within their territory.
