Canadian Junior Resource Companies represent a significant element of the Canadian economy.

Broadly, the sector can be divided into energy explorers and producers and mining explorers and producers.

The difference between explorers and producers lies in the fact explorers are actively looking for a resource whereas producers have found a resource and are engaged in producing the resource.

In both the energy and the mining sectors companies can have market capitalizations as low as a couple of hundred thousand dollars and as high as several billion.
