NWT Mining Week 2020 - June 21 to 27 - Goes Virtual

Every year, the Government of the Northwest Territories dedicates one week to celebrate the rich history and economic impact of NWT’s mining sector, an industry that directly employs over 3,000 people and spends about $800 million a year in the territory. Over the years, mining has generated about 30,000 person years of employment in the NWT. That's the same as 1,000 people each having a 30-year career!
