Mine Life15 years (as of Jan 1, 2021)
Peace River Coal Operation consists of Trend mine and Roman Mountain mine.

Both mines were placed on care and maintenance at the end of 2014. The Mineral Resources are considered to have reasonable prospects for eventual economic extraction based on current long-term economic assumptions.

Summary:

The distribution of coal-bearing units in northeast British Columbia is controlled by structures of the Rocky Mountain Foreland Fold and Thrust Belt. Along the western flank of the Foothills, in the hanging walls of the Merrick and Whatley faults, coal is absent. Structurally beneath and east of these faults, in the central and eastern parts of the Foothills, folded and thrusted shallow-marine units of the Minnes Group and Gething, Gates, and Boulder Creek formations host coal. All coal mines worked to date are in this central zone. Exposed or at shallow structural levels, coal-bearing beds can be mined by surface and underground methods. On the Plains east of the Foothills, flat-lying rocks of the Minnes Group and Gething, Gates and Boulder Creek are at depths that preclude surface mining, but underground mining may be feasible. However, the Wapiti Formation is exposed and could be mined by surface or underground methods.

The Roman Project property is located directly south of the existing Trend Mine. Coal seams of economic interest are located in the Gates and Gething Formations as at the Trend Mine. The structure of the Roman Project coal seams consists of a large syncline the axis of which strikes northwest–southeast. The axis of the syncline plunges to the northwest. Typically the limbs of the syncline are dipping at angles between 40 and 65°.

The Trend mine is located in the Peace region of northeast British Columbia, on the flanks of Roman and Qu ........
