Québec and Atlantic Canada have traversed 2025 in an enviable position. Strong gold prices have buoyed balance sheets and investor sentiment, while global demand for critical minerals keeps the region firmly on the radar of international markets. At the same time, the provinces’ depth of mining expertise – from AI-driven exploration to advanced drilling, blasting, and geophysics – ensures that technological advantage is firmly on their side.
