Since 1974

Company History and Properties

Founded in 1974 as a Canadian mining exploration company, Bianca Resources Ltd. was incorporated in British Columbia and listed on the Vancouver Stock Exchange (VSE). In 1977, its work centered on geological prospecting and core drilling for gold, lead, and zinc in the Hummingbird Mining District, northeast of Vancouver.

In the oil boom of the late 1970s, the Company participated in over 25 production wells in northeastern Ohio and, with a U.S. partner, completed three successful wells in West Texas's Permian Basin. It also took part in an exploration well in Montana, three locations in the Denver-Julesburg Basin, and an exploration well in Lafourche Parish, Louisiana.

The Company underwent a reorganization in late 1981, relocating its registered offices from Westmount Road in West Vancouver to the Montreal Trust Building on West Pender Street in downtown Vancouver. The publicly listed entity was subsequently liquidated, and its successor, Bianca Resources Ltd., a U.S. corporation, assumed the assets and liabilities of the legacy U.S. properties.
