Minto Metals Corp. has been in court-appointed receivership since June 29, 2023, in the Supreme Court of British Columbia under BIA s. 243 and provincial Judicature Act jurisdiction, with PricewaterhouseCoopers LLP as receiver. As at July 24, 2023, the receiver reported a book value of $76,000,000 for the property over which it took possession or control: producing mineral properties $28,000,000, plant and equipment $17,000,000, mineral exploration and development properties $13,000,000, restricted cash $10,000,000 and inventories $8,000,000. Secured claims include GLAS Americas LLC at $12,000,000, related party Capstone Mining Corp. at $5,000,000 and Sumitomo Canada Limited at US$5,729,905, plus registered liens held by mine contractors and suppliers, among them JDS Energy & Mining at $5,129,891, Cobalt Construction at $4,510,656 and Yukon Energy Corporation at $3,471,825. The itemized unsecured creditor list totals $23,674,665 CAD and $1,202,249 USD.
Reported on completing the sale of Minto's intangible mineral assets, claims, leases and permits to 843093 Yukon Inc., with the Yukon Government holding the mining and water licences during an interim period pending 843's exploration decision.
Sought Yukon Court approval and a vesting order for an as-is sale of a 2012 Caterpillar AD45B underground truck to Finning for $150,000 plus GST, totalling $157,500, with $8,190 of transport costs reimbursed.
Addressed Finning's Parts Claim for unutilized parts left at the Minto site, accepting its ownership interest but valuing the claim at $218,395 against Finning's $381,807.06, with $600,000 of First Transaction proceeds held in trust.
Supported a bifurcated sale of equipment and facilities to 843093 Yukon Inc. alongside the Maynards liquidation, answered JDS's objections, and declined a September 4, 2024 late offer for want of proof of funding.

Case update
Minto Metals: the $44 million claim that waits on a restart decision
PwC's Ninth Report seeks no order. It reports about $2.43 million on hand, miners' liens of about $38 million and the Government of Yukon's asserted reclamation claim of about $44 million, which turns on a restart decision anticipated in mid-2027. Until that claim is clearer, the receiver is not applying to distribute.

Each row is one filing's statement, copied as it reads and never computed. "Estimated" is the officer's forecast; "Under the plan" is the plan's or proposal's own term; "Final" is a declared or paid distribution; a row with no chip states no footing. A range is the two numbers stated; "of proven claims" is the document's own denominator.
