ABOUT US
The KPMA was established in 1974 by 56 placer miners who gathered in Dawson City to promote and protect the interests of their industry.
Since that time, the KPMA has flourished and represents approximately 200 family-owned and operated placer mines across several treasure-laden regions of the territory. We are a member-driven, non-profit advocacy group that continues to advance the Yukon’s placer mining industry on all fronts.
