Invest Yukon: A Fresh Look at One of Canada’s Most Undervalued Mining Regions
Stable jurisdiction, growing infrastructure, and rich untapped mineral potential
Yukon’s vast mineral potential is no secret to industry insiders, but recent infrastructure investments and strong government support are turning more eyes toward this northern Canadian territory. Industry voices including Tara Christie (CEO of Banyan Gold), David D’Onofrio (CEO of White Gold Corp), Jonas Smith (Executive Director, Yukon Chamber of Mines), and Byron King (Contributor, Paradigm Press), all highlighted the region’s unmatched combination of accessible mineralization, robust infrastructure, and favorable regulatory environment.
From a two-hour flight from Vancouver to thousands of kilometers of road and a planned connection to BC’s power grid, Yukon’s infrastructure is ready to support major projects. Meanwhile, the territorial and federal governments have committed hundreds of millions through initiatives like the Resource Gateway Project—an investment aimed squarely at unlocking more mining activity. As commodity prices remain strong and the global demand for metals intensifies, Yukon is positioning itself as a resource destination where geology meets opportunity.
Key Points:
- Over $300M in government-backed infrastructure investment through the Resource Gateway Project
- Accessibility via grid power, roads, and flight connectivity from major Canadian cities
- Strong government and industry alignment to support responsible resource development
- Rich in both gold and base metals with continued exploration success
- Favorable jurisdiction with rule of law and streamlined permitting
