What makes the Northern Miner different from other mining publications: On-site reporting

Our experienced mining journalists routinely visit mine sites and exploration projects in North America and abroad. We give readers a first-hand look at gold mining and diamond mining projects among others, along with profiles of mining companies and mining executives, plus geological, political and infrastructure factors affecting a mine's development.

For mining investors

You'll receive first-rate mining investment information about new gold, diamond and other precious metal discoveries. Unlike other mining journals and newsletters, The Northern Miner's reports are written by geologists who know how to assess the technical details of a project and who have visited exploration sites firsthand.

We also provide gold prices and other precious metals prices, stock market quotes, a stock portfolio service online and timely summaries of mining market activity on North American exchanges.

Most importantly, you'll receive an unbiased analysis of a mine or exploration site. Our editors have no vested interests in any gold mining or other mining stocks, so you receive a completely objective analysis.

For advertisers

We provide advertisers an effective forum to showcase their properties, products and services. The Northern Miner has been "the bible of the mining industry" since it began publication in 1915. We boast a 100% paid circulation, the highest of any weekly mining publication in the world.

We are a voice for the industry through insightful, thought-provoking commentaries and editorials that examine gold mining, diamond mining and other mining activity, and issues such as the environment, regulatory concerns and government policies. In addition to mining and exploration news, we keep mining companies and the mining industry at large up-to-date on career and professional opportunities, meetings and coming events. We keep investors informed by providing gold and precious metals prices, stock market quotes and timely summaries of mining market activity on North American exchanges.

Our goal is to provide both industry professionals and mining investors with accurate information and reporting. Our publication's logo, "On the Level", is more than a motto. It has been our guiding principle since 1915.
