  • Social Indicators for Arctic Mining
    SOCIAL INDICATORS FOR ARCTIC MINING ISER Working Paper 2011.2 Sharman Haley, Professor of Public Policy Nick Szymoniak, Matthew Klick, Andrew Crow and Tobias Schwoerer, Research Associates May 12, 2011 Institute of Social and Economic Research University of Alaska Anchorage 3211 Providence Drive Anchorage, Alaska 99508 Abstract This paper reviews and assesses the state of the data to describe and monitor mining trends in the pan-Arctic. It constructs a mining index and discusses its value as a social impact indicator and discusses drivers of change in Arctic mining. The widely available measures of mineral production and value are poor proxies for economic effects on Arctic communities. Trends in mining activity can be characterized as stasis or decline in mature regions of the Arctic, with strong growth in the frontier regions. World prices and the availability of large, undiscovered and untapped resources with favorable access and low political risk are the biggest drivers for Arctic mining, while climate change is a minor and locally variable factor. Historical data on mineral production and value is unavailable in electronic format for much of the Arctic, specifically Scandinavia and Russia; completing the historical record back to 1980 will require work with paper archives. The most critically needed improvement in data collection and reporting is to develop comparable measures of employment: the eight Arctic countries each use different definitions of employment, and different methodologies to collect the data. Furthermore, many countries do not report employment by county and industry, so the Arctic share of mining employment cannot be identified. More work needs to be done to develop indicator measures for ecosystem service flows.

  • Avidian Gold Acquires the Fish Creek Property, Alaska
    Avidian Gold to Acquire 100% of the Fish Creek Gold Property Located Adjacent to Fort Knox Gold Mine and Gil Deposit TORONTO, Ontario, June 1, 2020 – Avidian Gold Corp. (“Avidian” or the “Company”) (TSX- V: AVG) is pleased to announce that it has agreed to terms and signed a Binding Letter of Intent ("LOI") with Keltic Enterprises Inc. (“Keltic”) to acquire a 100% interest in the Fish Creek gold property. The Fish Creek gold property is a State of Alaska mineral lease totaling 418 hectares (1032 acres) and is located 6.5 km east of Kinross Gold’s Fort Knox Gold Mine and immediately west of Kinross's Gil deposit (Figure 1) in the Fairbanks Mining District. Please note: mineralization hosted on adjacent and/or nearby properties is not necessarily indicative of mineralization hosted on the Company’s property. David Anderson, Chairman and CEO of Avidian states: "The acquisition of the Fish Creek project is a continuation of our plan to acquire additional properties in the Fairbanks Mining District and Fort Knox area in particular. This is a prolific gold district that lends itself to favourable metallurgy through heap leaching of oxidized mineralization. We have seen oxidation profiles similar to Fort Knox in mineralization identified on our Amanita prospect located 5.5 kilometres south of the Fort Knox pit and anticipate a similar situation at Fish Creek. We look forward to continuing exploration at Amanita and initiating exploration at Fish Creek this summer." Figure 1 – Fairbanks Mining District The Fish Creek project has potential to host both lode and placer gold deposits due to its shared regional geology and down-slope location from both Kinross Gold’s Fort Knox mine and their Gil project.
