It is one of the world’s highest-grade silver mines and during its latest production phase from 2011-2013 it was Canada’s only primary silver mine. Bellekeno is the first mine, among more than 35 mine sites, to be reopened in the historic Keno Hill district, which has not seen any production since 1989. United Keno Hill Mine Ltd. originally operated the Bellekeno mine during peak silver production in the Keno Hill district in the mid-1900s. Alexco Resources purchased the Keno Hill Silver District in 2006. It reclaimed Bellekeno and in 2011 began production at the mine. Operations were suspended in the fall of 2013 due to low silver price.

  • Presentation-Yecpresentation E.Pdf
    Good morning, Chairman Neufeld and committee members. Thank you for the invitation to present to you on Yukon Energy’s business and the issues facing us. I will refer you to the slide presentation which I believe you have a copy of. I am now turning to slide 2. 1 I’ll address three general topics in my presentation: 1. Firstly. I’ll provide an overview of Yukon Energy, our asset profile, our recent project history, and our current status. 2. Next, I’ll discuss the options that we are focusing on for new supplies of energy 3. And finally, I’ll touch on some of the challenges that we face. After my formal remarks, I’ll be happy to take any questions that you have. Moving now to slide 3. 2 Yukon Energy is one of two regulated utilities in the Yukon. We are responsible for the majority of electricity generation in the Territory, including 3 hydro facilities and a fleet of back‐up diesel generators. We also own and operate the majority of the electrical grid in the Territory. We distribute electricity to residential and commercial customers in a few of the grid‐connected communities outside of Whitehorse, including Dawson City, Mayo and Faro. We do not serve any remote off‐grid communities. ATCO Electric Yukon is the other regulated utility in the Yukon –they distribute power to residential and commercial customers here in Whitehorse, and they also provide power to a number of off‐grid communities, including Burwash Landing, Destruction Bay, Beaver Creek, Old Crow and Watson Lake.
