The current Ministry of Northern Development and Mines website has been redesigned and will launch in early May.

The redesign focuses on bringing commonly accessed information to the forefront by simplifying the content and navigation of the website. The new site will be in full compliance with government standards such as accessibility, translation, and visual identity requirements.

The new design will allow for the rapid addition of content. New content will continue to be added following the launch.

Please note that existing bookmarks to Ministry web pages may need to be updated within your web browser following the launch.

GeologyOntario provides unprecedented access to the information holdings of the Ontario Geological Survey. Rich spatial and attribute search functionality facilitates the rapid discovery of relative information in over 85,000 reports representing over 2,000,000 pages and 168,000 maps from OGS publications and client submitted mining assessment files. In addition, hundreds of digital products containing field data, geophysical surveys, geochemical analyses and geochronological measurements are available for download.

Designed and built on the same technologies as the internationally recognized Crown Land Automated Internet Map System (CLAIMaps), citizens can generate multi-thematic maps at select scales and link in map services from other jurisdictions and organizations.

Rapid dissemination of geoscientific research and historic information promotes sustainable development initiatives and the responsible use of the Province's wealth of earth resources.
