Gold Producing Regions in Western Canada Boost National Wealth
Preliminary 1931 estimates show the Yukon Territory and Western Canada provinces producing about 291000 ounces of gold, nearly 1 percent of national output. Manitoba rose to 100510 ounces due to Flin Flon smelter operations, while British Columbia declined from copper mine curtailments.
