Mining Explorers 2011: Welcome to the 2011 Mining Explorers

With exploration spending topping $1 billion in 2011 - it has been an exciting year to follow the major and junior mining companies investing the capital and time needed to unlock the enormous mineral potential of Alaska, northern British Columbia, Northwest Territories, Nunavut and the Yukon Territory!

In our ongoing endeavor to provide you with the most in-depth and comprehensive coverage of the companies unlocking the vast mineral potential of Alaska and Canada's North - North of 60 Mining News Editor Rose Ragsdale and I are proud to present the 2011 Mining Explorers.

Drawing on North of 60 Mining News' unparalleled coverage of Alaska and Northern Canada's mining industry, Rose and I have compiled information on more than 60 companies that spent more than $5 million in 2011 on exploration programs aimed at discovering rich mineral deposits in this underexplored northern region.

To keep North of 60 Mining News readers current, Rose and I have followed closely the issues, events and projects that shaped mining in Alaska and Northern Canada in 2011 and look forward to continuing to keeping our readers up to date on the mining industry news from this region in 2012.

From the informative News Nuggets in its weekly online newsletter to the in-depth analysis provided in the monthly edition, North of 60 Mining News provides the most complete coverage available of the issues and events important to mining in Alaska and Canada's Far North.
