The Giant Mine was a gold mine located on the Ingraham Trail, 5 km (3.1 mi) north of Yellowknife, Northwest Territories. Giant Mine was within the Kam Group, a part of the Yellowknife greenstone belt. Gold was discovered on the property and mineral claims staked in 1935 by Johnny Baker, but the true extent of the gold deposits was not known until 1944, when a massive gold-bearing shear zone was uncovered beneath the drift-filled Baker Creek Valley.

(en) La mine Giant était une importante mine d'or située sur la route Ingraham Trail, à quelques kilomètres de Yellowknife, aux Territoires du Nord-Ouest (Canada). De l'or fut découvert à cet endroit en 1935 par Johnny Baker, mais l'étendue des dépôts aurifères ne fut vraiment perçue qu'en 1944, quand une zone de cisaillement contenant une importante quantité d'or fut mise à jour sous une accumulation de matières dans la vallée de Baker Creek. La découverte a provoqué une énorme ruée vers l'or à Yellowknife après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. La mine est entrée en production en 1948 et a cessé ses opérations en 2004. Il en a été extrait plus de 7 000 000 ozt en or (217 707 kg). L'extraction de l'or a laissé d'importants résidus toxiques solubles dans l'eau. (fr) Die Giant Mine war eine große Goldmine nahe Yellowknife, der Hauptstadt des kanadischen Gebiets Nordwest-Territorien. Bis 2004 wurden hier 220 Tonnen Gold abgebaut. Johnny Baker fand das erste Gold 1935 auf dem Gelände. Die wahren Ausmaße des Vorkommens blieben aber bis 1944 unbekannt, als eine vielversprechende goldhaltige Schicht (Goldader) unter dem Baker Creek Tal entdeckt wurde. Diese brachte der Stadt neuen Aufschwung in der Nachkriegszeit. 1948 wurde ein Wasserkraftwerk eingeweiht und im selben Jahr begann die industrielle Förderung des Edelmetalls. (de) Giant Mine var en stor guldgruva vid Ingraham Trail i närheten av Yellowknife i Northwest Territories i Kanada. Guldförande malm upptäcktes på platsen redan 1935, men dess omfattning blev inte känd förrän 1944, varefter en inmutningsboom inledes i Yellowknife. Giant Mine påbörjade brytning 1948 och lades ned 2004. Produktionen av guld över åren uppgick till 220.000 kilogram. Gruvan hade över åren många ägare, inklusive (1948-86 genom dotterbolaget Giant Yellowknife Mines Limited), Pamour of Australia (1986-90 genom dotterbolaget Giant Yellowknife Mines Limited), (1990–99) och Miramar Mining Corporation (1999–2004). Efter det att Royal Oak Mines gått i konkurs 1999, tog den kanadensiska regeringens Department of Indian Affairs and Northern Development över ansvaret för att rena gruvområde (sv)
