The Mount Edziza Recreation Area was a recreation area in Cassiar Land District of northwestern British Columbia, Canada, located southeast of the community of Telegraph Creek.[1] It was established on 27 February 1972 along with Mount Edziza Provincial Park.[1][2] Initially, the Script error: No such module "convert". recreation area formed a Script error: No such module "convert". buffer zone around much of the provincial park.[1][3]
About Script error: No such module "convert". of the Mount Edziza Recreation Area was annexed into Mount Edziza Provincial Park on 21 March 1989, greatly reducing its size to around Script error: No such module "convert"..[1][3] By this time only a small portion of the recreation area was located east of Mount Edziza.[4] On 19 March 2003, the Mount Edziza Recreation Area was disestablished to allow resource development on the Spectrum mineral claims.[1][3][5]
Mineral exploration
The Spectrum or Red Dog property consisted of a block of mineral claims that covered quartz, pyrite and chalcopyrite mineralization in fractured sedimentary and volcanic rocks of Late Triassic age in the Mount Edziza Recreation Area.[3][6] Commodities on the property included copper, gold, lead, silver and zinc.[6] From 1971 to 1973, Imperial Oil conducted geophysical, geological and geochemical surveying, as well as Script error: No such module "convert". of drilling in four holes. Geochemical and geological surveys were conducted on the Spectrum property by Consolidated Silver Ridge Mines and Newhawk Mines between 1976 and 1981.[3]
Consolidated Silver Ridge Mines also built an airstrip and carried out Script error: No such module "convert". of drilling in 28 holes during this time period. Additional work on the Spectrum property by Newhawk Mines during this time period included the construction of an access road and Script error: No such module "convert". of underground development on the Hawk vein. Further geochemical and geological surveying was performed by Moongold Resources from 1987 to 1989. Mineral exploration conducted by Columbia Gold Mines from 1990 to 1992 consisted of rock sampling, trenching and Script error: No such module "convert". of drilling in 50 holes.[3]
