Kinross has made excellent progress at the Great Bear Project since it was acquired in February 2022. The world-class Project is a centrepiece of the Company’s development portfolio and has the potential to become a top-tier deposit supporting a large, long-life mine complex and bolster Kinross’s long-term production outlook.
Ideally located in the renowned Red Lake mining district in Northern Ontario, Great Bear represents a generational opportunity to responsibly develop a high-quality asset that will deliver positive and lasting benefits through job creation, local investment, and strong environmental stewardship.
As part of the Kinross global portfolio, the Project is grounded in the Company’s track record of operational excellence, sustainability leadership, and outstanding corporate citizenship. We are building more than a mine; we are building a legacy guided by Kinross’s core values and commitment to sustainable mining.
Designed with the best-in-class engineering and advanced technologies, Kinross envisions a combined open pit and underground mine with an initial 12‑year mine life and strong underground expansion potential. Great Bear is being advanced in line with Kinross’s comprehensive environmental standards and provincial and federal regulatory requirements across the life of mine, from exploration through closure.
