A Canadian mining corporation wants to create one of North America’s largest open pit gold-copper mines, the proposed Pebble Mine, within a much larger potential mining district in the headwaters of Bristol Bay.

While wild salmon stocks in many parts of the world are in peril, Alaska represents a place where these magnificent fish still return in such abundance that the numbers are staggering and nearly impossible to comprehend. The Bristol Bay watershed is one of the top places in the world for abundant and healthy wild Alaska salmon runs.

Come hear presenters speak about how Pebble Mine would affect the environment, wildlife, and the livelihood of the people living and working in the area.
