British Columbia, Yukon and Vancouver Mining 2011 E&MJ Release

July 02, 2011

The jurisdictions of British Columbia and Yukon and the city of Vancouver may appear a strange combination for one report, but each exemplifies the potential of the Canadian mining industry. British Columbia has an astonishing diversity of natural wealth, producing antimony, cadmium, copper, gold, iron ore, lead, molybdenum, silver, zinc, thermal and metallurgical coal and 30 industrial minerals. Meanwhile, Yukon is an unrivalled expanse of emptiness, but the discovery of vast quantities of gold has had geologists and prospectors rushing to the region. Finally, Vancouver is home to over 1200 junior companies, more than any city in the world. Canada is full of exciting opportunities.
