Description

This report documents the placer mining industry in the Yukon from 1998 to 2002. The information is presented in three sections. The first section contains an overall view of staking activity, placer gold production and a breakdown of gold produced by creek. The second section comprises a collection of general interest and historical articles, including a new segment describing the first Yukon placer mining reclamation award. The Robert E. Leckie Award for Outstanding Reclamation Practices was created in honour of Mayo Mining Inspector, Bob Leckie, who passed away in 1999. Details of the award and each year's winners are in this section. The third section of the report contains detailed descriptions, locations and, in many cases, photographs of various placer mining operations visited by the Mining Inspection Division of the Mineral Resource Directorate during the course of duty.
