Rubicon Minerals Corporation is a well-funded, top tier, gold exploration company deriving its strength from a hands-on management team with a track record of discovery. Rubicon controls over 96,000 acres of prime exploration ground in the prolific Red Lake gold camp of Ontario, Canada, which hosts Goldcorp's high-grade, world class Red Lake Mine. Rubicon's flagship property is the 100%-controlled Phoenix Gold Project, located in the heart of this producing camp.

Through a transaction completed in May, 2007 with former Goldcorp Inc. Chairman and CEO, Rob McEwen, Rubicon acquired 512,960 acres of prospective exploration ground in Alaska in the area of the 5.6 million ounce Pogo deposit as well as a 225,000 acre land package in northeast Nevada. With an exceptional technical team, outstanding assets, a focus on gold camps in politically safe environments and a high profile in the capital markets, Rubicon Minerals has gained the reputation as a leading junior exploration company.
