GRC Members Ashley Derry and Craig Dunn were in Valemount this week with
Borealis Geopower, trying to determine the potential costs of drilling to generate power on their geothermal lease. Dunn says they have let two of their leases in the
Canoe Reach lapse – the ones further south – because the potential in them is equal to the potential closer to town; and the closer to town the better.
On Monday night, April 28, Dunn and Derry met with about 15 interested locals at the
Three Ranges brewery to talk geothermal, and to explain why they are testing residential wells outside of their lease area.
Dunn says they will be testing more wells over the coming months, as well as continuing with other exploratory work. He’s hoping to start a slim hole drilling program this summer.
