The Tahltan Central Government has provided a notice to Doubleview Gold Corp that the Nation opposes Doubleview’s continued operations within their territory.
Doubleview’s mineral claims are in a culturally sensitive area. The Tahltan Central Government says in a statement,” it has made attempts to work with Doubleview in a respectful manner but the company has failed to conduct its activities in a manner that is consistent with the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples.”
The Tahltan Nation does generally support mining and exploration activities, these activities must be done in accordance with their laws and policies. The Tahltan Nation will continue to oppose Doubleview’s continued operations and take further steps to ensure the company’s activities cease.
