Unreclaimed trenches from before the time SEGO! Resources took over claims

Trenching begins

At the beginning separation of earth is one of the key elements to the successful reclamation of a trenching program

With the digging completed, the crew is able to take measurements and samples for assay

Once the assay samples have been taken, and measurements complete, the process to backfill the trenches begins

With the trench is backfilled, the top soil is put back and the topography of the area begins to take its prior shape

Contouring and flattening is completed which assists in stablizing against soil erosion.

After re-seeding, areas that have been trenched are returned to their prior state, and in the case of some previous trenches, a better state for grazing animals and livestock

The trenching program complete, SEGO Resources Inc. along with the Upper Similkameen Indian Band are acknowledged for their work
