Prospector Podcast – Iain Thompson: EY Insights – BC Mining Boom: $751M Record Exploration Spend in 2025

 

 

 

 

Join Michael Fox as he interviews Iain Thompson, Mining and Metals Consulting Lead at Ernst & Young Canada, diving into the 2025 BC Mineral and Exploration Survey—marking its 12th year in partnership with AMEBC and the Ministry of Mines and Critical Minerals. Discover explosive growth in BC exploration spending hitting a record $751 million, fueled by copper projects in the northern Golden Triangle and North Central regions, despite BC dropping to fourth in mining investment rankings behind Saskatchewan’s uranium boom. They unpack uneven investment distribution (58% in the Northwest), critical metals strategies amid geopolitical tensions, supply chain risks from Middle East conflicts, and optimistic trends for copper, nickel, and beyond—backed by 12 years of data.
