DEEP ROOTS IN MINING

MINING LAW

Weilers has deep roots in mining. 70 years ago, founding partner G. B. “Bernie” Weiler began his practice at the mining camp in Hardrock, Ontario (now the town of Geraldton).

Today, we continue to advise, negotiate on behalf of and represent clients in relation to mining initiatives. Our clients include exploration, development and operating companies; First Nations; engineers; and contractors for supplies and services. Weilers maintains an extensive library of rare reference materials uniquely suited to mining inquiries.
