Boreal Prospectors Association
Our Goals
What is the Boreal Prospectors Association? The BPA has been established as a member group of the Ontario Prospectors Association. It is to provide a forum in which its members can discuss and address the many unique geographical, governmental and cultural challenges facing prospectors and exploration companies North of 51 (north of the Area of the Undertaking).
What is the purpose of the Association? It is the intent of this Association to engage and support individual northern prospectors and to facilitate community-industry interaction by encouraging capacity building and mutual understanding. The BPA will represent and further the interests of its members in order to promote a sustainable mineral industry in Northern Ontario.
Why was this Association created? The development of the association was proposed by northerners in an effort to encourage capacity building and understanding of the mineral industry in northern communities, improve engagement of the mineral industry with residents of the north and increase local participation in the industry.
Who should join the Association? Everyone with an interest in benefiting from the economy of the mineral industry in northern Ontario should participate in the association. Individuals, community leaders and planners and those directly involved with the mineral industry all have an important role to play in this association.
Who Directs the Association? The Board of Directors includes: Thomas Tookate, Doug Parker, Luc McKay, Mike Fox, David Duchesne, Michael Cunningham and Mitch Diabo.
