Social Responsibility
Acting Responsibly Isn't Something We Do, It's Who We Are...
The Livengood property is part of a vibrant Alaskan community that includes Fairbanks as well as a number of rural communities in interior Alaska. Our staff is 100 percent Alaska residents with over 150 years of combined experience working in the state and their roots go deep. In addition to being respected professionals in the mining industry, many of them were raised in Fairbanks and are now bringing up their own families in the area. The bottom line is that we don’t just live and work in Fairbanks, we are directly involved in the growth and well-being of the community.
While environmental stewardship is part of our corporate culture, our people at the Livengood project always make it easy to do the right thing -- because they live where they mine. They are both great employees and good citizens who double time as coaches, conservationists and volunteers, donating more than 100 hours to volunteer work last year alone. Below is a list of just some of the organizations our people are involved with at a Board or Leadership Level:
- American Heart Association, Western States Affiliate
- Alaska Humanities Forum
- Fairbanks Chamber of Commerce
- Council of Alaska Producers
- Resource Development Council
- Alaska Minerals Commission
- Alaska Resource Education Council
- Usibelli Coal Mine
Already an Alaskan Contributer
The Livengood project is still in the early stages of development...but Tower Hill Mines is already a respected commodity in the Alaska business community. The potential of the project is well known throughout the state and has generated positive buzz within local communities. Such excitement not only lies in the fact that the Livengood project will eventually employ hundreds of Alaskans for a generation to come, but the basis of such goodwill lies in Tower Hill's people. Our seasoned professionals come to this project with long resumes of success in Alaskan projects and they know that before you build a mine, you have to build relationships.
Livengood Project Updates
As they work to advance the project, Tower Hill Staff have reached out to communities and colleagues across the State to keep them updated on our latest developments. Our briefings have initally focused on government officials and regulatory agencies, but have also included businesses, trade organizations, communities and their leaders.
If you are located in Alaska and are interested in learning more about the Livengood project, please contact Rick Solie, Community & Government Relations Manager, at rsolie@ithmines.com.
