April 22, 2021 - Yamana Gold is proud to support the Mining Innovation Zone (MIZ) of Rouyn-Noranda

Yamana is proud to support the Rouyn-Noranda Mining Innovation Zone (MIZ) project: the result of a process of reflection undertaken by players in various sectors, such as mining, education, business and culture. The ZIM makes human beings the priority in the transition to a new era of mining – one that is more sustainable and more in tune with its environment. We believe that this is a promising project for the community, one that will allow us to underscore the industry’s knowledge, resources and experience in mining, both nationally and internationally. The expertise and synergies developed within the MIZ will benefit both the community and the industry.

Rouyn-Noranda's MIZ stands out because the mining industry is part of the city's DNA. In the context of a global energy transition that will involve the mineral sector and its critical and strategic mineral resources, the MIZ will be a key part of the solution that will allow Quebec to differentiate itself and make advances in sustainable development.
