Red Dog Operations is one of the world's largest zinc mines, located about 105 miles north of the Arctic Circle in northwest Alaska, near Kotzebue.
In 1989, Red Dog Operations was developed through an innovative operating agreement between the operator Teck and the land-owner NANA, a Regional Alaska Native corporation owned by the Iñupiat people of northwest Alaska. The mine and concentrator properties are leased from, and were developed under the agreement with NANA.
