FEATURED PHOTOS: Gold Buyers of Alaska Miners Dinner
In May, the Gold Buyers of Alaska hosted their seventh Annual Miners Prime Rib Dinner at a local favorite spot, the Turtle Club in Fox, Alaska. The event is a chance for gold miners from around Alaska to come together for an evening of good food and fun times with fellow miners and friends. Lee and Melinda St. Pierre, owners of GBA Assaying & Refining, welcomed more than 180 guests to dine and toast the new mining season of 2022. This occasion is a great opportunity for miners to see each other one last time before everyone heads out to their mines across Alaska. Many won’t see city lights again until after the first snow. The first event was inspired at the Alaska Mining Association convention at the Carlson Center in 2015. Lee enjoyed visiting so much he invited the attendees to dinner at the Turtle Club to catch up and share their stories, and GBA’s Annual Miners Kick Off was born!
