The Éléonore Property is host to the Roberto Deposit, a major new gold discovery situated within a relatively unexplored greenstone/meta-sedimentary belt in the James Bay district of Northern Québec, Canada. This unique and significant deposit is located in the core of what Goldcorp believes to be a promising new gold district in North America. Goldcorp acquired the Éléonore gold property from Virginia Gold Mines at the end of March 2006, and then incorporated “Les Mines Opinaca Ltée” (“Opinaca”), a 100% subsidiary and the operating company in Québec.
At year end 2008, the Éléonore resource was calculated at more than 5 million ounces indicated and inferred.
Progress was made on establishing site infrastructure at Éléonore and work is being done to advance internal feasibility models based on a higher-grade resource model.
