Overview

Ontario has all the time been a premier jurisdiction for mining in Canada. Nevertheless, one in every of Ontario’s earliest gold camps within the province’s northwestern area is exhibiting indicators of high-grade revitalization.

The city of Atikokan in Ontario is thought for its two large iron ore pits mined in the course of the Second World Conflict and operated till the late Seventies. The earliest gold exploration dates again to the 1800s, with vital manufacturing reaching upwards of roughly 52,000 ounces of gold and 174,000 ounces of silver in that interval.
