Exploring the potential

Welcoming messages
Healthy minerals industry
Newfoundland and Labrador has a vibrant, resource-based economy that exports goods and products to North American and global markets.
Teck Duck Pond operations
Teck Duck Pond Operations is the newest mine in the historic base metal-rich district of the Dunnage Zone of central Newfoundland. The Duck Pond deposit, which is currently being mined, comprises the Upper Duck, Sleeper and Lower Duck zones.
Iron Ore Company of Canada
The Iron Ore Company of Canada (IOC) is Canada’s largest iron-ore producer, and a leading global supplier of iron-ore pellets and concentrates.
Vale Inco - Voisey's Bay
Vale Inco’s nickel mine and concentrator at Voisey’s Bay, Labrador, is a key contributor to GDP, employment, business development and government revenues in Newfoundland and Labrador.
Diverse geology and rich in minerals
Newfoundland and Labrador is the largest and most geologically diverse of Canada’s Atlantic provinces. Its present setting on the eastern edge of the North American continent is the latest manifestation of a diverse and protracted four billion year history.
A long mining and exploration history
The earliest documentation of the province’s rich mineral endowment dates back to the 16th century when copper, iron, lead and silver were noted by English explorers.
Aurora’s Michelin project puts Labrador on uranium map
In the Central Mineral Belt (CMB) in Labrador, on Canada’s Atlantic coast, a turn of the earth with a shovel exposes one of the most significant uranium districts in the world.
Rambler developing under-explored potential
The Rambler copper-gold property is located near tidewater on the Baie Verte Peninsula in northern Newfoundland, an area with a rich mining history.
A favourable business climate
Newfoundland and Labrador’s diverse geology and mineral potential are augmented by a competitive tax regime, a suite of business incentives, and a skilled and experienced work force, which make the province a prime investment location.
