From the high-grade uranium of Saskatchewan's Athabasca Basin to the prolific gold districts of Nevada. Explore the mining camps that power the continent's mineral production.
Saskatchewan, Canada
The world's highest-grade uranium deposits. Home to the McArthur River and Cigar Lake mines, which together produce roughly 15% of global uranium supply. Cameco and Orano are the dominant operators, with Denison Mines, NexGen Energy, and Fission Uranium advancing major development projects.
Ontario, Canada
One of the most prolific gold-producing regions in Canadian history, with over 70 million ounces produced since 1909. The Abitibi greenstone belt hosts multiple active mines and exploration projects. Newmont's Porcupine mine complex continues to operate here.
Ontario, Canada
A world-class gold camp in northwestern Ontario with a production history exceeding 30 million ounces. Evolution Mining's Red Lake mine is the flagship operation, producing high-grade gold from underground workings.
Ontario, Canada
Created by a meteorite impact 1.85 billion years ago, the Sudbury Basin is one of the world's largest sources of nickel and copper. Vale and Glencore operate major mining complexes here, producing nickel, copper, cobalt, and platinum group metals.
Ontario, Canada
A remote mineral-rich area in northern Ontario's James Bay Lowlands containing massive chromite deposits and significant nickel-copper resources. Infrastructure challenges and First Nations consultations are key factors in development timelines.
British Columbia, Canada
A highly mineralized region in northwestern BC experiencing a modern exploration renaissance. The area hosts Seabridge Gold's KSM project (one of the world's largest undeveloped gold-copper deposits) and Pretium Resources' Brucejack mine.
Nova Scotia, Canada
An emerging gold district in eastern Nova Scotia where NexGold Mining is advancing the Goldboro Gold Project. The deposit features a positive PEA and represents one of the largest undeveloped gold resources in Atlantic Canada.
