Company Information

Wesdome is a Canadian‑focused gold producer with two high‑grade underground assets, the Eagle River mine in Ontario and the Kiena mine in Quebec. The Company’s primary goal is to responsibly leverage its operating platform and high‑quality brownfield and greenfield exploration pipeline to build a growing value‑driven gold producer.
