Fraser Institute’s

Annual survey of mining companies

Fraser_Institute_2023_Annual_Survey_of_Mining_Companies_Julio_Mejia_Elmira_Aliakbari

The Fraser Institute's 2022 mining and exploration survey reveals Quebec's impressive standing as the 8th most attractive global jurisdiction for mining investment.

  • Quebec owes its allure to strong mineral potential and favorable public policies.

  • The province offers a lucrative 35 percent tax credit incentive for exploration spending, a significant draw for investors.

  • Expedited permit acquisition, with 80% obtained within six months, showcases Quebec's efficiency.

  • Quebec stands out for its transparent policies that foster exploration investment rather than acting as a deterrent.

Canada’s Critical

Minerals Strategy

Canada is strategically focusing on the critical mineral sector, particularly lithium, to drive economic growth and job creation amid the global shift towards a low-carbon economy. Recognizing the importance of securing a resilient supply chain for critical minerals, Canada aims to avoid vulnerabilities seen in other nations. Lithium, essential for batteries, electric cars, and renewable energy technologies, presents a generational opportunity for Canada. The government's Critical Minerals Strategy, backed by significant investment, seeks to position Canada as a global supplier, emphasizing exploration, extraction, processing, manufacturing, and recycling. The strategy aligns with environmental and social standards, Indigenous reconciliation, and collaboration with stakeholders. Canada's commitment to sustainable and inclusive development positions it as a key player in the clean energy and technology supply chain on the path to a net-zero future.

Canada’s Critical Mineral Opportunities

Investments across Canada

Investments_in_Canada_Across_The_Battery_Value_Chain

Canada has seen $66.4 billion invested in critical mineral projects from 2010 to 2020, constituting 45% of total spending, albeit a small but growing portion except for base metals and uranium.

Governments aid exploration via geoscience support like geological maps and surveys.

Enhancing geoscience capacity involves merging geological potential with economic viability, ESG considerations, and infrastructure data early on to identify promising projects with lower risks. Improved data analysis platforms and predictive tools at the mining cycle's start would streamline planning, boost investor confidence, and streamline regulatory processes.
