Yet as an explorer with an eye for untapped mineral potential and as an aficionado of raw wilderness, I take some encouragement from these figures. Despite the latest boom, my home territory remains a frontier. After more than a century, for miners and naturalists alike, it seems that the spell of the Yukon

Mining chatter in the Yukon these days is all about the yellow metal. It''s been that way for at least 10 years, according to geologist Mike Burke, who spent more than 20 years working for the
· MingAn Fu, president of Anthill Resources Ltd., is an example of the increasing Chinese interest in Yukon. He is a Canadian immigrant who has worked in the mining industry in China for over 15 years focusing on precious metals. Anthill Resources is currently exploring for gold and copper; they have a drill program in place for 2,000 m in 2012. "After a year of surface work we did in 2011, we
Chinese mining investors are new to the Yukon. And they don''t understand First Nation rights, says Chief Liard McMillan. "I see a lot of naivete in the mining industry with companies that might be new to operating in Canada," said McMillan, chief of the Watson Lakebased Liard First Nation. "Especially when some of these junior companies are bringing in Chinese partners, and we''re
In the refining of rare earth ores, China is even more dominant. Last year, almost 90% of all the processing into usable oxides was done in China.
Yukon Zinc — which is owned by Jinduicheng Canada Resources Corp., a private Chinese company — argues that the government can''t claim the million security as a debt, because the government hasn''t actually spent any of its own money at the site, only part of the million in security Yukon Zinc managed to pay.

· Many lakes in China are subject to eutrophication. Water quality analyses on 862 Chinese lakes reveal that better sanitation has reduced phosphorus inputs in the most populated areas, but
· Exploration contracts provide the right to explore a specific part of the seabed for 15 years. As of mid2020, 30 mining groups have signed exploration contracts, including governments, publicprivate partnerships, international consortiums and private multinational companies. Two entities hold the most exploration contracts (three each): the government of Korea and the China Ocean Mineral
Mineral processing, refining and further beneficiation will generally be subject to the same legislative regimes that apply to mineral exploration and mineral extraction, as the provincial, territorial and federal statutes regulate all stages of the mining process. If mineral processing will be undertaken at the mine site, it will have been approved through the mine permit application and the
Yukon is a Canadian Territory rich in gold and natural resources. With as many companies that are exploring the region, it is surprising there isn''t more gold production. That has begun to change
The HRRIP method turned out to be a fast, efficient, and environmentally friendly approach to explore for mineral deposits in nonglaciated regions of the Yukon. Agreement between known geology and mineralization and the inverted profiles was generally good. In some of the test cases chargeability was effective in locating areas of mineralization and in others resistivity outlined structure
On the other hand, China produces almost half of the world''s refined cobalt. According to the JRC report these risks will persist in the future, increasing in the short term but potentially decreasing between 2020 and 2030, when currently ongoing exploration projects could add new suppliers and diversify the market.
He also touched upon the many advantages of the Yukon, with its abundant mineral potential, including worldclass deposits and a competitive regulatory regime. He also drew attention to the territory''s support for earlystage exploration through the Yukon Mineral Exploration Program. The program helps to shoulder a portion of the risk capital required for individuals and companies to explore
important in assessing the potential applicability of geophysics in geoenvironmental hazards identification. Geophysical responses for more deeply buried sources decrease in amplitude and increase in spatial wavelength until they disappear into geologic noise. Physical properties of cover, host rock, and mineral waste strongly influence responses of potentially hazardous material and are also
It also offers the Yukon Mineral Exploration Program (YMEP), which provides a portion of risk capital to explore and develop mineral projects to an advanced stage. 7.
