Lupin Mine

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Lupin Mine (65°45′N 111°15′W) is a gold producer in Nunavut Territory, Canada, having opened in 1982. It was originally owned and operated by Echo Bay Mines Limited, who in 2003 became a fully-owned subsidiary of Kinross Gold Corporation. The mine ceased production briefly in August 2003, but was re-started in early 2004 to recover old stope pillars with a reduced crew. The mine is probably the farthest north gold mine in the world, outside of Russia at least. The mine is closed again (February 2005) and in 2006 the assets were sold to Wolfden Resources Limited. Wolfden plans to use the production plant to operate their proposed mine at Izok Lake, located further north. They may also reopen Lupin to recover the last available ore reserves.
