The Endako mine is one of the largest molybdenum mines in North America.[1] The mine is located near Fraser Lake, British Columbia, Canada.[1] The Endako mine has reserves amounting to 448.4 million tonnes of molybdenum ore grading 0.033% molybdenum thus resulting 148,000 tonnes of molybdenum.[1]
The mine suspended production in 2015 "due to recent and expected ongoing weakness in the molybdenum price". Centerra Gold indicated at that time it expected "to re-evaluate the status of Endako Mine as market conditions warrant."[2]
