Avalon’s principal assets are its 100% owned Nechalacho Project (Yellowknife, Northwest Territories), Separation Rapids (near Minaki, Ontario), East Kemptville, Nova Scotia, Miramichi (New Brunswick), Lilypad Lakes (near Ignace, Ontario), Warren Township (Ontario) and Spor Mountain (near Delta, Utah).

The Nechalacho Project at Thor Lake is situated in an area known as the Akaitcho Territory which is subject to a comprehensive land claim negotiation between several communities of the Dene Nation and Canada's federal government.
