Quebec Mining Review: The Surge in Mining M&A and Opportunities in Quebec

In the 2026 Quebec Mining Journal Review, Jean Tessier examines the resurgence of mining mergers and acquisitions in Canada and the opportunities emerging across Quebec's mining sector. Driven by strong commodity prices, particularly for gold, mining was one of Canada's most active sectors for dealmaking in 2025, with activity spanning both major producers and junior exploration companies.

In his column, Jean discusses the market conditions supporting continued investment and M&A activity, including robust exploration spending, rising interest in critical minerals and Canada's favourable position as a stable and low-risk mining jurisdiction. He also considers the outlook for Quebec's mining sector and why the conditions for sustained dealmaking remain strong in 2026.
