Quebec expects to capitalize on the emerging North America-based critical mineral supply chain through an ‘aligned policy ecosystem,’ The Northern Miner’s Canadian Mining Symposium heard this month in London.
“The strategic aim is to create a symbiotic, vertically integrated supply chain supporting exploration, mine and midstream industrial development, “from mines to the battery cell,” Jocelyn Douhéret, the director for mining policies at the Natural Resources and Forests ministry, told the Quebec-government-sponsored panel.
Osisko Gold Royalties (TSX: OR; NYSE: OR) chair Sean Roosen shares his extensive experience working in the province and elsewhere, emphasizing the province’s mineral endowment and the value of the substantial governmental supports available such as the charity flow-through tax incentive scheme allowing juniors to raise capital, and explorers being granted free access to countless reams of detailed geological survey data to process for their gain.
Also featuring insights from Normand Champigny, CEO of Quebec Precious Metals, the panel considers sustainable mining practices in the province, the significance of energy, mainly hydropower, in mining operations, and the tools and ease of access for explorers in the region.
