Welcome to Highland Valley Copper mine.
During my time at the largest open pit copper mine in Canada, i learned many things about mining and processing copper that I never knew before.
Besides the giant face shovels, hands down my favorite part of this tour was learning about the reclamation process. It's astounding how much effort Teck Mining puts into restoring the environment at their mine sites across Canada. In many cases, they restore the land better than it was before by creating engineered microclimates which draw other species of wildlife that weren't previously able to live there before. It's truely amazing how biologists are able to revive the most desolate of landscapes in such a short time, and create basically a perfect habit.
Before taking the tour, I had a head full of misconceptions of the mining industry. To be honest I was quite sceptical, but seeing it with my own two eyes, definitely changed my outlook and opinion of mining natural resources in my beautiful country of Canada 🇨🇦. Fun fact: each one of those benches are 30 meters high.
