Falconbridge Nickel Mines, Ltd. v. Minister of National Revenue, [1965] CTC 514, 65 DTC 5304 -- text
JUDSON, J. (all concur) :—The issue in this appeal is the claim of Falconbridge Nickel Mines Limited to deduct from its income for the years 1950, 1951 and 1952 certain prospecting, exploration and development expenses. Throughout the proceedings the expenses have been classified into 12 items and I will maintain that classification. The money was all spent on properties owned by others under the terms of written agreements, which I shall have to analyze later.
