Purpose: This data gives an indication of areas where mining has a significant economic and environmental impact. Supplemental_Information: This dataset was compiled from publically available information gathered during the fall of 2007. Sources for this dataset may or may not includes non-metal mines. Be sure to check the attribute table to select only relevant data. The creation of this dataset was with the assistance of the Canadian Boreal Initiative and the International Boreal Conservation Campaign.
