Deposit Type

  • Porphyry
  • Vein / narrow vein


Summary:

Endako is a porphyry molybdenum deposit mined in the Endako, East Denak and West Denak pits. In the longterm mine plan these will merge into a large ‘Super-Pit’.

The Endako deposit consists of an elongated stockwork of quartz-molybdenite veins within the Endako quartz monzonite phase of the Francois Lake Batholith. The orebody is a series of major en-echelon moly-sulfide veins that strike from north through east across the deposit and dip west to south.

The combined strike length of ore grade mineralization is about 3 miles (4.8 km) with a width of roughly 0.5 mile (0.75 km). Mining is in progress or has occurred in the Endako, and both Denak areas. The Northwest zone is yet to be produced. Ore grade moly nearly outcrops in the Northwest zone and is exposed in all of the other pit areas.

Molybdenite is the primary metallic mineral on the Endako Mine property. Minor pyrite, magnetite and chalcopyrite and traces of sphalerite, bornite, specularite and scheelite are also present. Single occurrences of beryl and bismuthinite have been reported. Molybdenite occurs in two types of veins. Large veins (up to 1.2 meters wide) contain laminae and fine disseminations of molybdenite.
The second vein type occurs as stockworks adjacent to the major veins in the form of fine fracture-fillings and veinlets of quartz-molybdenite. Pyrite is most abundant along the southern margin of the zone of molybdenum mineralization.


Mining Methods

  • Truck & Shovel / Loader


Summary:

The Endako Mine is an open-pit molybdenum mine, concentrator and roaster located approximately 161 km west of Prince George, British Columbia, Canada.

Endako Mine deposit is divided into four named areas: Northwest, Denak West, Denak East and Endako. Mining has occurred in the Endako and both Denak areas. The Northwest zone is yet to be put in operation.

The Endako Mine has been on care and maintenance effective July 1, 2015.
