Saskatchewan is the world’s largest potash producer and second biggest uranium producer, as well as being home to the world’s highest-grade uranium. Its rich resource base in these and other minerals and its friendly mining regime, has put it consistently at the top of the Fraser Institute’s Investment Attractiveness Index. In 2016 it reached the number one spot with Manitoba in second place. Manitoba, though, has a relatively small and underexplored mining industry but has established an attractive permitting environment for investors looking to exploit its rich base and precious metals reserves. Tumbling uranium prices after Japan’s Fukushima nuclear disaster and depressed potash and nickel prices in recent years have held back both provinces’ mining industries. However, market forces appear to be turning. Junior activity is increasing as uranium appears to be at its bottom and demand for metals like lithium and cobalt are strong. With the global mining industry seeing better days, Saskatchewan and Manitoba are positioning themselves for an upturn.

Dear Readers,
The pre-release of GBR’s 2018 Saskatchewan and Manitoba Industry Exploration Guide provides a snapshot of our research thus far, comprising our own market analysis and highlights from over 50 interviews conducted with key industry stakeholders. It provides an overview of the mining environments in both provinces, whilst also looking at recent developments such as a merger among potash giants, uranium operations put on hold and Saskatchewan’s first new mine in 40 years.
