Frequently Asked Questions
Cadillac Mines Corporation is a Canadian exploration company led by a diverse and highly experienced group of mining professionals. The Company is advancing a number of projects along the Cadillac-Larder Lake Break in Ontario and Québec.
The Company has undertaken exploration activities, including compilation and analysis of historical data, geological and geophysical studies and drilling to evaluate mineralization remaining around the historic workings of the Kerr-Addison Mine and to explore for new zones of gold mineralization.
Since acquiring the Kerr-Addison Mine, Cadillac Mines has also been conducting remediation work to address legacy mining impacts to make the environment safer for its employees and the surrounding communities.
Cadillac Mines is currently evaluating the economic potential of gold mineralization at the Kerr-Addison site and exploring new areas for potential mineralization across the property, including into Québec.
The pace of Cadillac Mines’ work is in part determined by its exploration results and its success in raising funds. For the moment, the Company remains in the exploration phase and is evaluating whether there are sufficient resources at the site to economically build and operate a mine.
Cadillac Mines is committed to a responsible approach to mineral exploration. The Company aims, at each stage of its development, to minimize the environmental impacts of its activities and to be a good neighbour.
Cadillac Mines’ property holdings (including pending Larder Property acquisition) are shaded in green on the map.

Cadillac Mines is conducting economic, engineering, social and environmental evaluations to assess the potential for a future mine.
If we are successful in demonstrating potential economic viability, additional drilling and more detailed studies, including environmental and social assessments, will be required.
It can take several years for a mine to enter production. Before that, the project must go through other development and studies phases, each dependent on positive results (advanced exploration underground access, pre-feasibility and feasibility studies, social and environmental assessment and permitting).
We believe that open communication and meaningful long-term relationships with communities are critical to the project’s success at each stage of its development. We are committed to continuing to build our understanding of the communities’ interests and concerns throughout meaningful engagement.
Managing a legacy mining site involves ensuring community safety, addressing historical environmental issues and rehabilitating legacy mining features. Unfortunately, the site was not properly rehabilitated per today’s standards by the previous owners. Safety hazards from historical activities such as open holes and collapsing underground workings remained throughout the old mining site.
Since purchasing the property in 2015, Cadillac Mines has removed 50,000 kg of cyanide and numerous barrels of hydrocarbons. In 2022, the Company removed two old oil tanks, recycled scrap metal and 500 kg of caustic soda plus added gravel to raise the roadbed level of a trail locally known as the 5-Minute Trail.
