N.W.T. Mining Heritage Society
The N.W.T. Mining Heritage Society was first formed in early 2000 as the Giant Mine Heritage Group to rescue items from the Giant Mine site after it's owner, Royal Oak Mines Incorporated, went bankrupt. By 2001 the group had changed it's name to the N.W.T. Mining Heritage Group and began planning for the creation of a mining museum for Yellowknife and the Northwest Territories and Nunavut as a whole. The museum will be located at the old Giant Mine site. In July 2002 the group formed a registered society. Work to build this mining museum is ongoing as of 2005.
