Quebec’s historic gold mining industry dates back to Jacques Cartier, who in the 16th century had the first idea of having discovered gold and diamonds on Cape Diamond Mountain. However, upon his arrival in France, he discovered that what he had discovered was pyrite and quartz. Subsequently, the giant gold mines in Quebec did not begin until the mid-19th century, when some discoveries were made in southern Quebec.
Today, Quebec is Canada’s largest gold manufacturer. In 2018, Quebec produced 33.7% of all gold in Canada. The amount produced 2.16 million ounces or 61.7 million grams. It is transparent that the mining industry plays a vital role in Quebec’s economy. The province recognizes this and provides mine-friendly jurisdiction, adding tax incentives and government-sponsored economic systems such as the “Nord Plan”.
