CONT

Le camp minier de Yellowknife est l'un des principaux districts aurifères du Canada depuis 1938.

CONT

Malgré cette découverte, la région ne devient un camp minier qu'à la suite du jalonnement de claims et de la découverte d'un gisement de cuivre et d'or [...] Le camp minier de Bousquet-Cadillac demeure aujourd'hui la principale région aurifère au Québec, avec les mines Doyon, Mouska et LaRonde.
