Polaris Miizerak Corporation Page I c 1.0 INTRODUCTION r ._1 The Bella Coola area, population 3,500, is located 430 kilometers northwest of Vancouver, B.C. t- at the head of North Bentinck Arm, off Burke Inlet. 1. The No Cents #2 claim is located approximately 20 kilometers east of BeIla Coola on the east r side of Nusatsum River near the confluence of the Nusatsum and BeIla Coola River (Figures I - . 1 4). ._. r . F r Page 2 !- . Figure 2 - Locaftin Map - road rtz,y Polaris Minerals Corporation Page 3 Figure 3 - Nusatsum Pii and No Cents #2 ciaim area The area lies within the eastern Coast Mountains of the Westem Canadian Cordillemn. Some of the Coast Mountains peaks in the immediate BelIa Coola are more than 2,750 meters (9,000 feet) high. High relief in the Bella Coola area is common, Tom the valley bottom to the top of Nusatsum Mountain is an elevation change of 2,423 meters within 4.2 kilometers. The steep walled, narrow Bella Coola River valley is very shaded during the winter months. The Bella Coola-North Bentinck Arm-Burke Channel depression penetrates the Coast Mountains for 130 kilometers from the coast to the village of Bella Coola Geological Survey reports indicate that the fiords are preglacia1 valleys modified by Pleistocene glaciers. Thick, expansive glaciers cover a large percentage of the area The glaciers, which formed during the Cordilleran Glacial Period, are presently waning. Only the highest peaks above approximately 2,000 meters elevation have not been glaciated. Glacial directions are generally f?om west or southwest to east. The No Cents #2 claim is underlain by a glacial outwash terrace, which may have been a former delta that joined the Bella Coola Valley. The Nusatsmn and Bella Coola Rivers have dissected the terrace. EIevation ranges from 120 meters in the to 300 meters. Bedrock exposures are present on the eastern margin of the property and dip shallowly at 25” to the west. The sand and gravel deposit is thought to be in excess of 100 meters thick. Polaris Minerals Corporation Page I The climate is mild with the coldest temperatures in January reaching an average low- of between -3°C to -5°C and an average high of between 0°C to 2°C. In July and August the daily high averages 19 to 21°C. Average annual rainfall is less than 160 cm per year. The driest months are June and July and the wettest months are between October and January. Strong outflow winds are common and can form white cap waves along North Bentinck Arm and Burke Channel. Numerous government geologists have examined the Bella Coola area. The earliest mapping was conducted in 1874 and 1876 by James Richardson and G.M. Dawson and more recently, between 1962 and 1967 by J.G. Souther, W.W. Hutchinson, J.A. Roddick and A.J. Baer. To date, the most informative publication is the Geological Survey of Canada, Memoir 372 by A.J. Baer, which compiles work completed in the area between 1962 and 1967. Mr. Alex Boronowski of Polaris Minerals Corporation mapped the No Cents #2 claim on i\pril 29,200 1. Five panned concentrate samples were combined to form one sample (NP- 1 ), which was submitted to ALS Chemex Laboratory in North Vancouver for analysis of 50 elements by aqua-regia digestion and a combination of ICP-MS and ICP-AES.

The panned samples collected by Alex Boronowski are composed of 50% fresh quartz diorite, with minor quartz veining and 50% weakly chloritized andesite derived from bedrock to the south. The coarser material is well rounded and the finer material is more subrounded to angular in shape. The sampled material is well sorted and indicates a slight preference for fine fraction (60?6). The material appears to be well-washed and only minor clay adhering to the surfaces. Five lo-kilogram samples were collected from the face of the Nustasum Pit (Illustration 1). These samples were panned and then the five samples were combined as one concentrate sample (m-l), uchich was submitted to AL.S Chemex for 50-element analysis. Ko gold was observed in the concentrates. The geochemical results do not indicate any anomalous base or precious metal values. However, it is recommended that more panning. and geochemical testing be conducted for placer minerals during any commercial productlon of sand and gravel from the Nusatsum Pit and extensive adjacent glacial outwash material. The eastern margin of the No Cents ii2 claim is underlain by westward shallowly dipping (25”) greenstone and greenschist metamorphic rock (Figure 4). No economic mineralization was found in the mapped outcrop and the geochemical analysis do not suggest that base or precious metal mineralization is present in the area. - Page 8 3.0 ITEMIZED COST STATEMENT April 29: 2001 field trip to BelIa Coola 1 day @ $350.00 S350.00 April 29, 2001 return airfare Vancouver - Bella CooIa S300.00 April 30,200l reviewing examination and submitting sample to ALS Chemex $300.00 April 30,200l ALS Chemex - 50-element analysis $ 22.04 March 25,2002 report writing and production 2 days @ S300.00iday $600.00 TOTAL $1372.04 Polaris Mimmls Corporation Page 9 4.0 AUTHOR’S QUALIFICATIONS I, Alexander J.

  • Eulachon Past and Present
    Eulachon past and present by Megan Felicity Moody B.Sc., The University of Victoria, 2000 A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF MASTER OF SCIENCE in The Faculty of Graduate Studies (Resource Management and Environmental Studies) THE UNIVERSITY OF BRITISH COLUMBIA (Vancouver) March 2008 © Megan Felicity Moody, 2008 Abstract The eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus), a small anadromous smelt (Family Osmeridae) found only along the Northwest Pacific Coast, is poorly understood. Many spawning populations have suffered declines but as their historic status is relatively unknown and the fisheries poorly documented, it is difficult to study the contributing factors. This thesis provides a survey of eulachon fisheries throughout its geographical range and three analyses aimed at improving our understanding of past and present fisheries, coast-wide abundance status, and the factors which may be impacting these populations. An in-depth view of the Nuxalk Nation eulachon fishery on the Bella Coola River, Central Coast, BC, is provided. The majority of catches were used for making eulachon grease, a food item produced by First Nations by fermenting, then cooking the fish to release the grease. Catch statistics were kept yearly from 1945-1989 but have since, rarely been recorded. Using traditional and local ecological knowledge, catches were reconstructed based on estimated annual grease production. Run size trends were also created using local Fisheries Officers and Nuxalk interview comments. A fuzzy logic expert system was designed to estimate the relative abundance of fifteen eulachon systems. The expert system uses catch data to determine the exploitation status of a fishery and combines it with other data sources (e.g., CPUE) to estimate an abundance status index.

I ground this work in the understanding that settler-colonialism and its remedies, resurgence and self-determination, are the fundamental determinants of Indigenous health and related inequities. Through a case study of eulachon (Thaleichthys pacificus) in Nuxalk territory, I take interest in systemic mechanisms of dispossession and resurgent practices of (re)connection and knowledge renewal as mediators of the relationship between environmental management and Indigenous health and well-being. This work is based in four years of observation, participation, and leadership in the Nuxalk Sputc (Eulachon) Project, a community-directed process that aimed to document and articulate Nuxalk knowledges about eulachon.

  • British Columbia Vancouver- West Coast Trail- Bella Coola Valley
    British Columbia Vancouver- West Coast Trail- Bella Coola Valley British Columbia is a region situated on the Canada’s West Coast. I have visited it in autumn 2008. British Columbia (or ‘BC’ as is called) is an good destination for any mammal watcher It harbors both terrestrial and sea mammals in large variety. Temperate climate, relative remoteness and beauty of the landscape provide enough attractions to keep any naturalist busy for several months. The place, of course is not free of environmental problems. Deforestation caused by unselected logging (in Google earth BC forest looks like spotted), overfishing, extraction of mineral resources, growing population and tourist traffic start to transform BC wild landscapes and drive some animals further deep into forest and finally, I’m afraid, into extinction too. Specific problem of the region is an outbreak of pine beetle, caused probably both by climate change and unsustainable forest management practices. Big stretches of dead forest and large clearances are sad remainders that even most remote places on earth are not environmentally trouble free. Although BC and Canada national governments has set up a network of provincial and national protected areas it shall be much enlarged in near future in order to preserve BC natural resources. Anybody interested in BC environment issues and willing to support the protection cause shall visit the site web of Nature Conservancy Canada, NGO active in BC old growth forest preservation (http://www.nature.org/wherewework/northamerica/canada/work/art14771.html). One of the most interesting places to visit in BC is the west coast of the Vancouver Island, preserved under Pacific Rim National Park.

  • The Legacy of the Nuxalk Food and Nutrition Program for the Food Security, Health, and Well-Being of Indigenous Peoples in British Columbia
    The Legacy of the Nuxalk Food and Nutrition Program for the Food Security, Health, and Well-being of Indigenous Peoples in British Columbia Harriet V. Kuhnlein, Karen Fediuk, Charles Nelson, Elizabeth Howard, and Suzanne Johnson INTRODUCTION lobal population growth and the complexities of intensified economic, environmental, and social change have accelerated the globalization of food networks and supplies. The marketing Gof profitable industrial food products has been so successful that it has brought serious health consequences to people everywhere, resulting in changing health statistics so that non-communicable diseases such as cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, and cancer are now a more sig- nificant global health threat than are infectious diseases who( 2008). This change is known as the “nutrition transition.” Indigenous peoples everywhere have experienced this nutrition and health transition (Cunningham 2009). Despite the wealth of traditional knowledge re- garding how to eat well and lead healthy lives in rural ecosystems, the 370 million Indigenous people worldwide are among those most vul- nerable to food insecurity, malnutrition, and chronic diseases (Cun- ningham 2009; Egeland and Harrison 2013). This vulnerability is directly linked to enduring marginalization, poverty, and discrimination, along with constant environmental threats to Indigenous peoples’ land and cultural resource base, which limits their access to healthy foods and heightens the risk of loss of heritage and identity (Kuhnlein and Receveur 1996; Turner, Plotkin, and Kuhnlein 2013). bc studies, no. 79, Autumn 3 159 160 bc studies For Indigenous peoples globally, food systems that evolved within their cultures and local ecosystems, probably over thousands of years, are now being replaced with a mix of traditional foods and commercial foods bought in markets, including industrially processed foods.

  • Bernard Fillip Jacobsen and Three Nuxalk Legends
    Journal <~(Northwest Anthropology, 46(2):143-166 2012 BERNARD FILLIP JACOBSEN AND THREE NUXALK LEGENDS Richard L. Bland ABSTRACT In the late 1800s, as the world was more and more rapidly falling under Western influence, there was a rush by European and American scholars to collect everything of Native cultures before it all vanished. One of the collectors, working more or less independently, was Bernard Fillip Jacobsen. Jacobsen, a Norwegian, arrived on the Northwest Coast of North America in 1884 where he remained for the remainder of his life. There he encouraged settlement of the region, collected Native artifacts that he sold to museums, and wrote and published articles on the region and on his exploits. His articles included travelogues, descriptions of Native dances, and Native legends. Herein are three previously unpublished Bella Coola legends, translated, with new information about Jacobsen's life. Introduction After arriving on the Northwest Coast, Bernard Fillip Jacobsen, a Norwegian, began writing and publishing articles about his exploits and about the local indignous peoples he encountered (Fig. 1). Often called Fillip, his articles were published far and wide and in a variety oflanguages. Some appeared in the Norwegian-language newspapers Washington-Posten (Seattle, WA) and the Tacoma-Tidende (Tacoma, WA), in the German paper Das Ausland, and in the Swedish anthropological and geographical society journal Ymer. Svenska siillskapet for antropologi och geografi. With only a couple of exceptions (B.F. Jacobsen 1997, 2004) Fillip's articles have not been published in translation. The legends translated here are from Ymer. Fillip's works have been used primarily by scholars, such as Randy Bouchard and Dorothy Kennedy (2002).

  • Vestiges of Tsimshianic and Other Penutian in Bella Coola
    Vestiges of Tsimshianic and other Penutian in Bella Coola Hank Nater Abstract: Bella Coola is a Salish language that has been heavily influenced by North Wakashan, while more than half of its free morphemes and about a third of its bound morphemes have no known origin. In this paper, I identify possible Tsimshianic matches for some of these morphemes, and evaluate relations within Bella Coola-Tsimshianic-other NW Pacific sets of like forms as well. I also contemplate a Tsimshianic origin for vowel length in Bella Coola, and examine a few connections with coastal Oregon Penutian languages.
