Are Discovery Mine and Hermiston-McCauley Mine in the same Canadian province?
Discovery Mine The Discovery Mine was a gold mine 81 kilometers northeast (approx bearing of 15 degrees) of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories that operated between 1950 and 1969. Gold was discovered here by Alfred Giauque in 1944. A complete townsite, on Giauque Lake, was established by the company to house workers and their families. The mine produced one million troy ounces (31,000 kg) of gold from one million tons of ore. The abandoned townsite, not accessible by road, was demolished in 2005.
Verity mine The Verity mine is a large mine located about '30 miles kilometres north-northeast of Blue River in southeastern British Columbia', Canada. Verity represents one of the largest tantalum reserves in Canada having estimated reserves of 3.06 million tonnes of ore grading 0.02% tantalum, 0.065% niobium and 3.2% fluorite.
