Invest Yukon: Revitalizing Exploration and Attracting Major Investments

October 16, 2023

Untapped Potential, New Discoveries, and Collaborative Partnerships in Canada's Promising Mining Frontier

The Yukon in Canada is experiencing a mining revival, with Victoria Gold constructing a new mine and Hecla taking over Alexco. Major mining companies are investing in the region due to its supportive mining regulations and the discovery of a new mining district. Despite its association with the Klondike gold rush, the Yukon remains largely unexplored and holds significant potential. The eastern Yukon has proven to be a fruitful area for exploration, and companies have diversified their operations beyond mining to include logistics and power production. The involvement of major mining companies, including Agnico Eagle, Kinross, Newmont, Rio Tinto, and Hecla, highlights the opportunities and potential in the Yukon. Collaboration with the First Nations communities in the Yukon is crucial for project success, and the presence of settled land claim agreements facilitates communication and support from the local communities. The Yukon offers a favourable environment for mining, with active mines, projects in development, successful exploration stories, and vast unexplored geological resources.
