"Northern Superior Resources has a unique and aggressive strategy of consolidation of the Chibougamau gold camp, where many gold projects are located close to one another."
"Québec's road network offers more access to mining sites than in Nunavut. However, employees would be discouraged if they had to commute to the mine by road. Québec's aviation industry is therefore vital, allowing mines to use fly-in and fly-out services to support their operations and attract new talent."
"Projects can range from planning the construction of a runway, organizing transportation logistics, selecting appropriate air carriers, or even just supporting on-site operations on a regular basis."
CHAIRMAN, AEMQ (QUÉBEC MINERAL EXPLORATION ASSOCIATION)
"Everybody wants electrification, and we need to convey that sustainable mining for critical minerals is the biggest part of this transition, and one of the best places in the world to do it is in Québec."
"What has prompted this aggressive growth strategy is the demand we see in the market for underground drilling services as increasingly more of our clients are going underground."
PRESIDENT AND CEO, QUEBEC MINING ASSOCIATION (QMA) / ASSOCIATION MINIERE DU QUEBEC (AMQ)
"Québec is in a great position to become a mining jurisdiction capable of producing the necessary minerals for decarbonization and helping the rest of the world decrease its GHG emissions."
VP RAGLAN MINE (PB) & COO COPPER NORTH AMERICA AND PHILIPPINES (CB), GLENCORE
"We are making significant investments in our copper assets in Québec, and we look forward to increasing our recycling capabilities there. The goal is simple: providing the metals to decarbonize the planet."
"We aim to develop an open-pit gold mine with a mine life of 20 years or more, producing over 300,000 oz/y, along with significant amounts of copper and silver."
In August 2023, Mexican exports to the US surpassed China for the first time. As companies prioritize securing supply their chains after years of logistics challenges, Mexico has begun to see major benefits. With a spate of new infrastructure projects such as the Interoceanic Corridor of the Isthmus of Tehuantepec coming online in 2023, the country is actively opening itself to investment. The chemical industry, in particular, is positioned for nearshoring-driven growth.
