Northgate Exploration Limited
 PROFILE
Old gold miner Northgate Exploration dates from 1919. The company mines gold, silver, and copper, primarily through subsidiary Northgate Resources. The company's British Columbia-based Kemess Mine produced nearly 226,000 ounces of gold and over 50 million pounds of copper in 2000. Northgate bought the mine in late 2000 from Royal Oak for about $200 million after Royal Oak had spent $600 million to open the mine -- going bankrupt in the process. Northgate's Bretzin Mine subsidiary owns and explores for mineral properties in South America. B.C. Pacific Capital Corporation owns nearly 35% of Northgate, and Terry Lyons, Northgate's CEO, is president of B.C. Pacific Capital.
