ABSTRACT:The Gahcho Kué (GK) Mine is a joint venture (JV) of the De Beers Group (De Beers) and Mountain Province Diamonds Inc. (MPD), with ownerships of 51% and 49%, respectively. The property is located in the Northwest Territories (NWT) of Canada, 280 km east-northeast of Yellowknife. The Mine lies on the edge of the continuous permafrost zone in an area known as the barren lands. The surface is characterised as heath / tundra, with occasional knolls, bedrock outcrops, and localised surface depressions interspersed with lakes. A thin discontinuous cover of organic and mineral soil overlies primarily bedrock, which typically occurs within a few metres of surface. Some small stands of stunted spruce are found in the area along with myriad lakes. Kennady Lake, under which the kimberlite pipes lie, is a local headwater lake with a minimal catchment area. Due to its location, the Gahcho Kué Mine is a fly-in / fly-out operation with access by winter road during February and March for freight deliveries. Access by air is currently via Yellowknife and Calgary. The winter road (Figure 1-1) functions under a Licence of Occupation by the winter road JV partners who operate
