Archie runs a small mineral exploration business (as a sole proprietorship). In 2016, he purchased land (for $68,000) where he suspected a magnesium deposit was located. He incurred $18,000 of exploration costs related to the development of the magnesium mine in 2016 and an additional $22,000 of exploration costs in 2017.
