AMA Celebrates Alaska Mining Day!
AMA’s statewide Zoom call May 9 featured a record number of attendees with 130 participants logging on to hear from DNR Commissioner John Boyle on mining issues and updates, and to present the Alaska Mining Day proclamation signed by Gov. Mike Dunleavy. It was a blast to celebrate Alaska Mining Day (May 10) a day early and to have so many smiling faces online. Thank you for helping us celebrate our industry and all that each of you do for us at AMA!
PROUDLY PROVIDING ALASKA with underground, surface and helicopter supported core drilling for mineral exploration and geotechnical work.
I am an equipment operator. I am the next generation. I am mining.
At 24 years old, I’m already an equipment operator for Kinross Alaska. I drive mine trucks and have trained on more advanced equipment, such as bulldozers and graders. I just started working with our dispatch team, as well. Not only has mining allowed me to earn great pay right out of school, but I don’t have any student loans or debt. I would encourage anyone entering the workforce to consider a career in mining.
