Discover Liard Strategic Minerals

Liard Strategic Minerals proudly owns 100% of North America’s largest known undeveloped fluorspar deposits, a critical mineral essential for various industrial applications including the manufacture of aluminum, steel, and hydrofluoric acid. The company is making significant progress and is advancing towards near-term production, aiming to meet the growing demand for fluorspar in key markets.

Strategically positioned in the resource-rich region of British Columbia, Canada, Liard is uniquely placed to provide a secure and reliable supply of fluorspar. The company is committed to adhering to the highest standards of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) compliance, ensuring that its operations are sustainable and responsible. This positions Liard as a trusted supplier to both North American and European markets, which are increasingly seeking domestic sources of critical minerals to reduce dependency on imports.

Supported by historic resource estimates and extensive geological data, Liard Strategic Minerals stands out as one of the few advanced-stage projects in the region with the capability to establish a domestic supply chain for fluorspar. This is particularly important given the strategic importance of fluorspar in various high-tech and green energy applications. The company’s development plans are focused on leveraging its significant resource base to deliver long-term value to stakeholders while contributing to the security of critical mineral supply chains in North America.

Why Liard Strategic Minerals

Liard Strategic Minerals stands out as a compelling opportunity in the mining sector, thanks to its historic high-grade deposits conveniently located on the surface just 5 kilometers from the Alaska Highway in British Columbia. This prime location not only provides excellent accessibility but also supports efficient logistics for future operations. The project features numerous mineral showings that confirm its district-scale potential, and the company already holds the necessary permits to commence drilling activities. Unlike traditional mining operations, Liard’s deposit can be mined as a quarry, which significantly simplifies the permitting process and makes both exploitation and development much faster, easier, and more cost-effective. This quarry-style approach gives Liard a distinct competitive advantage.

The company is targeting to be generating cash flow within five years, and possibly even sooner, due to British Columbia’s recent announcement to expedite critical minerals projects. This accelerated timeline could allow Liard to capitalize on market demand for strategic minerals more quickly than many competitors. Liard Strategic Minerals is supported by a highly experienced team with deep expertise in both fluorspar and the permitting and mining landscape of British Columbia, ensuring capable operational leadership.
