On Monday, March 2nd, 2009, at a private luncheon during the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) convention in Toronto, Starfield Resources was presented with the Inuit Involvement Award by the Kivalliq Inuit Association (KIA).
The luncheon was sponsored by Nunavut Tunngavik Inc., Department of Lands and Resources. "With the socioeconomics of exploration and mining projects becoming an important issue for the Inuit of the Kivalliq, the KIA wanted to recognize a company exploring in the Kivalliq who displayed outstanding efforts in hiring Inuit and contracting Inuit businesses. Last season, Starfield Resources was that exploration company," said Jackson Lindell, Land Use Inspector for the KIA.
Starfield Resources is extremely proud to announce that Allison Rippin Armstrong, Director of Environment and Permitting, was also presented a personal Expert Counsel Award from the KIA, for her effective counselling ensuring that companies strive for best environmental policies.
