West Kitikmeot Gold
West Kitikmeot Gold (WKG) was incorporated as a subsidiary of Nunavut Resources Corporation (NRC) in 2014. WKG serves as a commercial vehicle having Inuit equity participation that is focused on accessing mineral exploration markets to finance exploration in the Kitikmeot region.
Since its inception, WKG has accumulated a package of mineral exploration properties in the Kitikmeot region. Most of these properties are situated on Inuit Owned Land and are close to the proposed alignment of the Grays Bay Road and Port Project. It is on the basis of this initial suite of properties that WKG seeks to establish partnerships with investors to execute exploration programs in this highly prospective but underexplored part of Canada.
Through a Management Agreement between NRC and Kitikmeot Corporation, Kitikmeot Corporation provides WKG with day-to-day operational support. KC senior managers also serve as WKG Officers to assist the work of WKG’s President.
