Land holdings are almost always in a state of flux. Due to the structure of the mining regulations in the NWT which requires regular reporting and minimum expenditures, most claims are held for two years . It is fairly rare for mineral claims to be held more than 10 years in the NWT as this is the threshold for dropping the claim or applying to the government for a mineral lease.
