Biodiversity-positive gold that restores habitat for salmon and other species.
Tailings from historic placer mine sites can disrupt habitat for salmon, grayling, and other anadromous fish, preventing migration and spawning. Salmon Gold remines these sites and then restores fish habitat. We are currently working in Alaska, the Yukon Territory, and British Columbia, home to globally significant habitat for salmon and other anadromous fish species.
Launched in 2018 by RESOLVE, Salmon Gold demonstrated proof-of-concept, completing our first pilot sites. We work with miners, communities, conservationists, agencies, restoration experts, and manufacturers and brands to produce gold that tells a positive story in the marketplace and demonstrates the value of restoration. Salmon Gold is in the supply chains of our downstream partners, including Apple and Tiffany & Co.
We utilize sustainable techniques and leading restoration practices to help restore fish habitat.
Now, as part of Regeneration Enterprises, Salmon Gold is expanding to new locations, forging new partnerships, and securing resources to scale the program.

Salmon Gold's progress is the result of support from our partners (Apple, Tiffany & Co., Newmont, Mejuri, Donlin, and PAMP). We thank the US Bureau of Land Management and the Yukon Geological Survey for their guidance and expertise. Thanks to Mejuri for supporting Salmon Gold financially through retail campaigns such as Giving Tuesday 2022.
By producing gold that supports restoration, Salmon Gold meets the needs of manufacturing and retail companies seeking responsibly sourced minerals for their products.
As Salmon Gold expands, our goal is to scale restoration in Alaska, the Yukon Territory, British Columbia, and other regions with revenue from remining and by valuing restoration. We hope to be able to support restoration projects with funding from offsets.

Salmon Gold is now part of Regeneration, a start-up public benefit corporation (B-Corp) that restores mine waste while securing minerals for the energy transition, green tech, and sustainable brands.
Participate in Salmon Gold through our pilot projects, by offering expertise or in-kind support, and by investing in or partnering with Regeneration.
Salmon Gold brings together communities, miners, conservationists, manufacturing and retail companies, and government agencies in Alaska, the Yukon Territory, and British Columbia to support remining of place tailings and restoration.
We focus on historical placer gold mine sites that contain gold in tailings left from past mining.
Gold from sites in Alaska and the Yukon Territory of Canada is now in the supply chains of our partners, including Apple. Salmon Gold serves as the proof-of-concept and inspiration for Regeneration.
