Overview of Quebec’s Mining Potential and its Expertise

There are many reasons why Quebec is interesting for mineral exploration and mining development. With its vast territory and large swaths of underexplored land, Quebec is known worldwide for its diversity and great mineral wealth. Qualified expertise has developed over time in response to the large number of ore deposits mined as open pit and underground operations. Underground mining methods vary according to deposit type and geometry, from bulk mining to selective extraction in veins, using a wide range of techniques and equipment under the broad expertise of engineers, technicians and miners. In addition to having world-class deposits, Quebec’s mining industry places great importance on occupational health and safety.
