Doyon, Limited was incorporated in Alaska on June 26, 1972. Headquartered in Fairbanks, Alaska, Doyon, Limited is a for-profit corporation with about 18,000 Alaska Native shareholders primarily of Northern Athabaskan Indian descent...

As of March 2007, about 9.8 million acres (40,000 km²) have been conveyed, including 6.6 million acres (27,000 km²) in surface and subsurface estate (fee Owned) and 3.2 million acres (13,000 km²) of subsurface estate corresponding to surface estate owned by villages corporations in the Doyon region." - Wikipedia
