HVC MLE

HIGHLAND VALLEY COPPER MINE LIFE EXTENSION PROJECT

Highland Valley Copper Mine Life Extension Project (HVC MLE) is a brownfield extension of our operational asset, Highland Valley Copper (100% Teck-owned) in British Columbia, from 2028 out to 2046. Average copper production is estimated to be 132,000 tonnes per year over the life of mine.


The Mine Life Extension is expected to create some 2,900 jobs during the construction phase of the project. After construction, Highland Valley Copper’s ongoing operations will support approximately 1,500 direct jobs and generate an estimated $500 million in annual GDP. Teck’s total capital investment in the project represents the largest critical minerals investment in British Columbia history. 


The HVC MLE will be located at the current HVC site, approximately 17 km west of Logan Lake and 75 km southwest of Kamloops.
