Abstract: The Yukon hosts numerous deposits that have been mined in the past, and the highly prospective geology continues to attract exploration interest. It lays claim to 2,700 known mineral occurrences and over 80 mineral deposits with established reserves, a number of which are world-class. The recent advances in mineral deposit modelling have brought fresh ideas about where and how to look for new deposits.

The Yukon is entering a new era of economic partnerships and investment opportunities that are based on government-to-government relationships with First Nations, who are becoming full partners in the territory’s resource development.

If ever there was a good time to take a look, this is it. Come explore and discover the Yukon.
