This is a rich gold mining area in the Unuk and Iskut River

Iskut River

The Iskut River is the largest tributary of the Stikine River in northwestern British Columbia, Canada, entering it a few miles above its entry into Alaska....

 region on north coastal mountains of British Columbia. Remote and rugged, the area has
a service road from the Stewart-Cassiar Highway at Bell 2 Services.

The mining region was spearheaded by Murray Pezim in 1987 with diamond drilling and underground mining established.
Development work by Prime Resources yielded gold in 1988 when hole 109 turned out to contain 5 oz of gold per ton.
A mill and camp was later set up and the mine entered into production. The area has many prospects and ore showings and so is valuable.
