The Giant Mine is a gold mine in Yellowknife. Mining in and around this city and especially on the Ingraham Trail has led to the production of about seven million ounces of gold, resulting in one of the longest continuous gold mining operations in Canadian mining history. Currently under scrutiny for the toxic Arsenic waste that is a by-product of the excessive mining, the Giant Mine is in for a major clean up.
From a visitor’s point of view, the Giant Mine keeps a big chunk of Yellowknife’s commercial history and wonder years. Do check with the visitor’s center if it is open for visitors before you decide to visit.
