Based in Anchorage, Alaska, North of 60 Mining News covers events and activities related to gold, zinc, silver, copper, diamond, coal and all precious and base metals mining in Alaska and northern and western Canada. It is the only privately published standalone publication about mining in Alaska.

North of 60 Mining News, part of the same publishing group as Petroleum News, publishes weekly online newsletters and a monthly newspaper that is available online and in print.

North of 60 Mining News also provides coverage of major mining news from other parts of the world -- events that affect the industry in Alaska and northern and western Canada.

North of 60 Mining News focuses on mining exploration, development and production, and offers extensive coverage of public policy and advocacy events that could affect our readers and their business interests.

Our editorial objective is to provide readers with solid, trustworthy and timely information. North of 60 Mining News and its newsletter are frequently the first publications to break significant stories from Alaska and northern and western Canada.

Our news staff does not rely solely on industry press releases for information. Rather, we keep abreast of permit filings, lease and staking reports, and other interactions with government agencies that often prove to be the forerunners of major exploration, development and production endeavors.

Our philosophy serves the best interests of North of 60 Mining News readers and advertisers because if people view our newspaper and newsletter as a “must read,” it means they are also seeing our clients’ ads.

We offer contracted advertisers in North of 60 Mining News a free listing in our monthly Mining Directory (a buyer’s guide), as well as several other marketing benefits.

We do not have an editorial calendar because we believe news draws readers. How can we know what will be news six months or a year from now? If we select a topic that tempts advertisers, but that edition ends up containing dated, re-hashed information, we are doing a disservice to our readers and our advertisers.

North of 60 Mining News is a newspaper that no company involved in this region’s mining industry should be without. It’s your paper, for your industry. We want to hear from you!

Subscribe for a year and see what you think. We guarantee there’s nothing like it in Alaska, Canada or anywhere else in the world.
