Community Involvement

Yukon Zinc supports activities that help build the social, cultural, environmental and economic health of the communities that we work and live in.

Socio-economic Participation Agreement In July 2005, Yukon Zinc completed a socio-economic participation agreement (SEPA) with the Ross River Dena Council on behalf of the Kaska its bands and their respective members. The agreement addresses the concerns within Kaska traditional territory where the Wolverine deposit is located in and provides for their participation in the economic and social benefits of the development and operation of Wolverine as a mine.
