Pacific Booker Minerals Inc.P
Pacific Booker Minerals is advancing the Morrison copper-gold project in British Columbia. The stage classification (PERMITTING) reflects the furthest milestone reached, not current momentum: the project's Environmental Assessment Certificate was REFUSED, and the company is redoing its resource estimate and Pre-Feasibility Study. Share count (18,677,435) is the reconciled figure following a Jul 2026 placement; cash is left unstated as only a pre-raise figure was found; debt-free.
Notable vs. Peers
- Jurisdiction risk score of 6/10 is meaningfully riskier than the peer average of 7.7/10.
- Trading within 4% of its 52-week high — strong recent price momentum.

Milestones are recorded only from a company's own dated disclosure. A milestone with no date shown is one we can confirm was reached but for which no date was disclosed — we don't estimate one. "Not yet reached" means exactly that, not that a date is missing. An "Expected" line likewise only ever reflects the company's own guidance (e.g. a study or permit decision targeted for a stated quarter) — most not-yet-reached milestones have none, and that absence means no such guidance has been disclosed, not that one is overdue.
Not in place: mill, tailings facility, grid power.
Jurisdiction (40%)6/10
British Columbia: Fraser PPI 2025 is 74.28 of 100 (rank 31 of 68), which maps to 9 on this site's scale; this company scores 6 for the project-specific reason below. British Columbia, Canada is normally a top-tier mining jurisdiction, scored lower here specifically because the Morrison project's Environmental Assessment Certificate was refused -- real project-specific permitting risk, not country risk generally.
Infrastructure (40%)2.9/10
No confirmed mill, confirmed road access, no confirmed grid power, and no confirmed tailings facility at Morrison Copper-Gold Project, British Columbia.
Nearby producing mine (20%)Not yet researched
No producing mine within 50 km in our reference list (nearest listed: Mount Milligan (Centerra Gold Inc.), 146 km). That list doesn't cover every mining district yet, so a longer distance isn't scored as remote.
Acquisition Susceptibility
A relative ranking of how closely this company matches the profile of juniors that have actually been acquired — not a probability, and not a reason to buy. Acquisitions are rare: only a few dozen significant deals happen a year across a universe of thousands of juniors, so even a high score here describes a long shot. The strongest signal in the research, a producer that already owns part of the company, is scored from its disclosed strategic shareholders. A producer that is a joint-venture or earn-in partner on the project, rather than a shareholder, isn't captured yet.
How this score is built
- Disclosed pending dealSub-score: Not scored
No pending acquisition or merger disclosed (checked)
Not scored: having no deal in flight isn't held against a company.
Weight 26.25% - Producer's strategic stakeSub-score: Not scored
No producer holds a disclosed stake on file (holder register researched) See holders
Not scored: most juniors that do get bought had no prior toehold, so a missing stake says little either way.

Insiders, Investors & Smart Money
Notable shareholders and insiders whose involvement is worth knowing about, plus what we're seeing from institutional/large-investor activity.
A rival company backed by major mining names made an unsolicited offer to buy Pacific Booker outright earlier this year, which would have been a real signal -- but the offer was withdrawn in June 2026 without completing, so no actual investment resulted. The existing register is otherwise small individual holders.
No notable insiders tracked for this miner yet.
Reports, Presentations & Documents
Pacific Booker Minerals owns 100% of the Morrison copper-gold project in central British Columbia, where a feasibility study was completed by Wardrop Engineering in 2009 but the project's Environmental Assessment Certificate was refused. The company is now redoing its resource estimate and pre-feasibility study: on 21 August 2026 it engaged Tetra Tech Canada to complete a full NI 43-101 pre-feasibility study, covering open-pit mine planning, reserve estimation if supported, metallurgy, infrastructure and financial analysis, with an updated resource estimate expected first and the full study targeted for the first quarter of 2027. The work is funded by a private placement that closed on 16 July 2026.
