partnership venture is already there ! it's called a share of the mineral tax !!!!
BKM will need to pay the gov't hunderds of millions of dollars in mineral taxes and the LBN get a portion of the gov't mineral tax. Salmon calculated in prevous posts... over the life of the mine its estimated 270 million dollars .... !!!! That is over the life of the mine some 25 or 30 years but its more then a million dollars a year for 2500 some LBN ? (not sure of exact number of LBN)
That can be used for education, infrastructurer, hospitals, roads but wait ... that s not all...
the mine will bring high paying jobs to the LBN communities, housing , and the employees of the mine will visit and make LBN establishments that sell retail goods or dining more profitable
and oh yeah, its carbon neutral, opens BC up to more investments and wait for it wait for it and HAS NO ADVERSE ENVIRONMENTAL AFFECTS !

THE FACT WE DONT HAVE A PERMIT IS RIDICULOUS, CRIMINAL AND UNJUST.
