Forested mountain terrain along the Highway 37 corridor in Northern BC

Mining & Exploration Support in BC's Golden Triangle

Clearing, falling, and access work for mining and mineral exploration programs, from a contractor headquartered at KM 405 on Highway 37.

Wild Timber Industries provides mining and exploration support across British Columbia, from our headquarters in Iskut, inside the Golden Triangle. When your program needs ground opened up, we handle the land-services side: drill pad and staging clearing, access and right-of-way clearing, survey line cutting, timber falling and salvage, and danger tree assessment around worksites.

Most contractors mobilize into the Highway 37 corridor. We live on it. That means shorter mobilization, crews who know the terrain and the seasons, and a company that operates in direct partnership with the Tahltan and Nisga'a Nations, on whose territories much of the region's exploration activity takes place.

Who hires us for exploration support: exploration and mining companies opening or expanding programs, drilling contractors who need pads and access ready on schedule, and the engineering and environmental firms coordinating early-stage work.

What you get

Ground opened,
on your schedule.

The clearing and falling phases of an exploration program, run by one contractor with one point of accountability.

01

Drill pad and site clearing

Pads, staging areas, laydowns, and camps cleared to your spec, with timber felled, decked, or salvaged as the program requires.

02

Access and line work

Access routes and rights-of-way cleared and maintained, and survey grids and lines cut accurately for geophysics and staking.

03

Hazard management

Danger tree assessment and certified falling around worksites, camps, and access, so your people work under safe canopy.

Based in the Golden Triangle, working across BC and Alberta

The Golden Triangle is remote, steep, and seasonal. Programs succeed here when the ground work is planned around the terrain and the weather, not against them. We bring the local knowledge that comes from being headquartered in the region, and the same crews support exploration and resource programs anywhere in British Columbia and Alberta.

If your program carries Indigenous-participation requirements, our direct Tahltan and Nisga'a partnership is not a subcontract arrangement bolted on for the bid. Read more on our Indigenous partnership page, or send us the requirement language with your scope.

FAQ

Exploration support questions

What work do you do for mining and exploration companies?

The land-services side of a program: clearing for drill pads, staging areas, and laydowns, access and right-of-way clearing, grid and line cutting for surveys, timber falling and salvage, danger tree assessment around worksites, and the project management to run those phases under one contract.

Where are you based relative to the Golden Triangle?

Our headquarters is at KM 405 on Highway 37 North in Iskut, BC, inside the Golden Triangle. Crews mobilize from within the region rather than travelling into it.

Why does your Indigenous partnership matter for exploration programs?

We operate in direct partnership with the Tahltan and Nisga'a Nations. For programs on or near their territories, that means a contractor with existing community relationships and a workforce built through local hiring and training. Send us your Indigenous-participation requirements and we will tell you straight how we fit them.

Do you work outside the Golden Triangle?

Yes. We support exploration and resource programs across British Columbia and Alberta. The Highway 37 corridor is home ground, but crews work wherever the program is.
