Gaspé Copper is the largest undeveloped copper-molybdenum deposit in Eastern North America. This past-producing copper mine is located next to the community of Murdochville, in the Gaspé Peninsula of Eastern Quebec, approximately 825 kilometres east of Montréal.
Québec — one of the most mining-friendly jurisdictions in North America — has a rich history of copper production. This unique opportunity will expose Osisko Metals to copper, a critical mineral necessary in the development of renewable, green energy in the global shift towards decarbonization.
All necessary support infrastructure for the potential re-opening of Gaspé Copper is already in place, including paved road access. Highway 198 links Murdochville with the coastal community of Gaspé, and port access to the St. Lawrence is nearby at Sainte-Anne-de-Monts. The site is also well-served by Hydro-Quebec, with an electrical substation located on-site to provide renewable hydroelectric power.
