About Bankier
Article content
Bankier is located in the Central Okanagan region of British Columbia, approximately 22 kilometres west of Peachland and near the historical Brenda Mine, a past-producing copper–molybdenum mine now in remediation. The property is underlain by a structurally complex intrusive system characterized by granodiorite and granite lithologies, cut by numerous alaskite dykes that are locally associated with alteration and mineralization.

Historical and recent geochemical and geophysical programs, including airborne magnetics, Mobile Metal Ion (MMI) soil sampling, and rock sampling, have outlined multiple multi-element geochemical anomalies in copper, molybdenum, gold, zinc, silver, lead, and uranium.
