XXXXXXXXXX ,
I am responding to your email message of October 28, 2010 concerning which CCA class to include the capital cost of an interest in an industrial mineral mine.
An industrial mineral mine is not included in any class of Schedule II, instead the deduction for CCA is permitted under paragraph 1100(1)(g) of the Regulations. The amount of the deduction is calculated under Schedule V. As stated in the Note under the Heading Completing Schedule 8, Column 1 - Class Number of the T2 Corporation Income Tax Guide "If a class number has not been provided in Schedule II of the Income Tax Regulations for a particular class of property, use the subsection provided in Regulation 1101."
Although the deduction is permitted under paragraph 1100(1)(g), and not Regulation 101, it seems reasonable that a similar rationale would apply. Consequently, "paragraph 1100(1)(g)" should be entered under column 1 of Schedule 8.
