Donlin Gold values input from the community. Helping to shape the direction of the project, we have been listening to the people of the region since exploration began over 16 years ago and have been putting their thoughts and concerns into action. For example, after hearing our initial project proposal, many people in the region encouraged us to seek alternative methods for powering the project. This resulted in Donlin studying the feasibility of a natural gas pipeline as the primary source of power for the project. As the project heads toward permitting, we look forward to hearing from the people of the Yukon Kuskokwim region, to better develop a mine that serves as a model for responsible mine development.

Over the past few years, Donlin Gold has been sending newsletters to stakeholders with the latest information on the project. Each newsletter gives updates on the project’s progress, what employees are up to, safety guidelines, as well as highlighting employees and their contributions to surrounding communities.
