Vancouver Island's west coast mining heritage includes gold and placer operations since the 1860s Gold Rush. The Tofino-Ucluelet area and central Vancouver Island drainages have yielded documented placer gold. Modern exploration targets include epithermal vein systems and porphyry copper-gold at depth. Access is primarily by forest roads and coastal air taxi; seasonal weather limits summer field seasons. Remote but pristine terrain attracts dedicated wilderness prospectors.
