Juneau Mining Forum
Above, Bob Loeffler and Green Creek’s Mike Satre listen intently as Elizabeth Saagulik Hensley from NANA Regional Corporation recounts the great success NANA and Red Dog Mine have had operating a great mine in keeping with Native values and protecting the environment. Below, the annual Legislative Reception hosted by AMA, the Alaska Trucking Association and Associated General Contractors drew a great crowd, including Alaska Miner publisher Lee Leschper, Rep. Dan Saddler, AMA Executive Director Deantha Skibinski and CAP Executive Director Karen Matthias.
