The 'NWT Mining Centre' doesn't exist yet, but someday it will. It will show the history of the geology, mineral exploration and of mines and mining in the north, particularly in the N.W.T. before and after division. The center will start off small but it will grow with time. It will be fun, informative and somewhat quirky.

Eventually we hope it will become a major resource center for the people of the north and a tourist attraction for visitors.
