Council of Alaska Producers launches brand, campaign
The Council of Alaska Producers, the statewide, nonprofit trade asso - ciation 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 Alas - ka Metal Mines (AKM) and is also beginning a public awareness cam - paign that highlights Alaska’s role in delivering the metals and miner - als that make innovations possible and provide economic and commu - nity benefits to Alaskans. “Mining Day is our largest an - nual event and we were excited to use the opportunity to showcase our new brand and how Alaska’s met - als 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 advance - ment of renewable energy, Alaska’s metal resources could play a major role in the technologies that under - pin these critical endeavors. With the growing global demand for metals spurred by these and oth - er advancements in transportation, medicine, automation, machinery, and electronics, Alaska is well-po - sitioned to lead future innovations. Created in 1992, the organization works to inspire Alaskans to realize
a shared goal of safe and sustain - able mineral production, provid - ing 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 Alas - ka, Hecla, Kinross Alaska, North - ern Star Resources, Teck, Donlin Gold, NANA, NOVAGOLD, Tower Hill Mines, Constantine, the Pebble Partnership and the Alaska Miners Association.
