Québec Mining 2019

April 17, 2019

GBR is back in ‘La Belle Province’ to provide a first-hand account of the current mining landscape in a world-class jurisdiction with unique institutional support. Québec hosts a diverse portfolio of minerals and metals that play a key role in the move towards green energy and the booming battery electric vehicles market, in addition to significant precious metals reserves and high grade iron ore from the Labrador Trough. As Eldorado Gold and Osisko Mining ramp up development at Québec’s next gold mines, a host of juniors look for the next discovery of significance, spurred on by the federal government’s decision to renew the mineral exploration tax credit (METC) until 2024. Parallel to this, a burgeoning Montréal tech community is working in collaboration with its international counterparts to develop solutions that are transforming processing technology, allowing companies to identify new deposits, and enhancing mine safety in jurisdictions across the globe.
