Before downloading the Assessment Report/ARIS
data please ensure that you have at least 20 megabytes of hard drive space available.
There is no charge for downloading the ARIS data. Please read the
installation information below and readme file for ARIS data. Note that the ARIS data is a brief summary (or index) on each
mineral assessment report approved. This data is posted annually with a
November cut-off date. It is an enhanced digital
version of the Assessment Report Index on paper (no longer published for sale - which
consists of 4 volumes and a 5-year supplement). The downloadable digitial version
also includes the following fields for approved assessment reports: commodities searched
for, summary work codes and keywords.
Note that the Ministry does not handle the sale of
Assessment Report photocopies; if you wish to purchase photocopies of the assessment
reports, please visit the Association for Mineral Exploration website or email them at
info@amebc.ca. Due to high production costs and low sales, Assessment
Report Index products are no longer published on paper. They are only available by
downloading the ARIS data or performing searches on the ARIS/WWW
database.
