GLOBAL HEADQUARTERS • PITTSBURGH, PA USA (412) 963-9071 • www.jennmar.com SUPPORTING THE WORLD AND YOU WITH SAFETY, SERVICE AND INNOVATION The Council of Alaska Producers, the statewide, nonprofit trade association representing Alaska’s large metal mines and several advanced projects, launched a new brand at the annual Mining Day celebration at the Alaska State Fair on Aug. 19. The group is now called Alaska Metal Mines (AKM) and is also beginning a public awareness campaign that highlights Alaska’s role in delivering the metals and minerals that make innovations possible and provide economic and community benefits to Alaskans. “Mining Day is our largest annual event and we were excited to use the opportunity to showcase our new brand and how Alaska’s metals advance the human experience,” said Alaska Metal Mines Executive Director, Karen Matthias. “Alaska’s approach to mining is world-class, smart and responsible. We want to connect with Alaskans and share how our natural resources not only benefit our daily lives but make the impossible possible.” As the world addresses issues of climate change and the advancement of renewable energy, Alaska’s metal resources could play a major role in the technologies that underpin these critical endeavors. With the growing global demand for metals spurred by these and other advancements in transportation, medicine, automation, machinery, and electronics, Alaska is well-positioned to lead future innovations. Created in 1992, the organization works to inspire Alaskans to realize a shared goal of safe and sustainable mineral production, providing economic and social benefits to Alaska communities and Alaskans. It has sponsored Mining Day at the Alaska State Fair since creating the event in 2008. Members include Coeur Alaska, Hecla, Kinross Alaska, Northern Star Resources, Teck, Donlin Gold, NANA, NOVAGOLD, Tower Hill Mines, Constantine, the Pebble Partnership and the Alaska Miners Association.
