Doris North will be the first mine operating on the 80km Hope Bay Greenstone Belt in Nunavut. Since 2002, SRK has helped advance this gold project from the initial scoping study, through environmental assessment, regulatory approval, detailed engineering and construction quality assurance. SRK has also provided geotechnical (rock and permafrost), hydro technical and waste management engineering, geochemistry, hydrogeology and overall regulatory guidance. Design included two precedent setting frozen core dams: the first, completed in 2012, which has been functioning in accordance with expectations. SRK continues consulting towards developing more mines along the Belt.
