About Underground Mining Guide
Underground Mining Guide is an independent guide for underground and hard-rock mining workers in Canada -- pay, hiring, tickets, rotations, and camp vs. town life across Sudbury, Timmins, Red Lake, Val-d'Or, Thompson, Flin Flon, and Yellowknife. We are not affiliated with Vale, Glencore, Evolution Mining, Newmont, or Agnico Eagle.
Alongside industry content, we compare provincially regulated online gambling operators for readers who choose to gamble off-shift. See our affiliate disclosure and responsible gambling pages for the full detail on how that works and what tools are available if it becomes a problem. See how to check an operator's registration yourself.
Where do the numbers come from?
Industry facts and salary figures are drawn from public sources (Job Bank, StatCan, provincial government occupation profiles, and industry research) where possible and are labelled "estimate, unconfirmed" where they have not yet been independently re-confirmed. See individual blog posts for cited sources.
Is this site affiliated with any mining employer?
No -- we are not affiliated with Vale, Glencore, Evolution Mining, Newmont, Agnico Eagle, or any other mining employer.
