Greenstone

Greenstone is best known in Ontario for the historic gold-mining district centred on Geraldton. Set in the boreal interior of northwestern Ontario, the municipality extends around Kenogamisis Lake and is crossed by Highway 11, the northern Trans-Canada route. Gold discoveries in the 1930s established Geraldton as a mining community; today it is one of the communities brought together in the Municipality of Greenstone, created in 2001. The wider area also includes Longlac, Nakina, Beardmore and Caramat, settlements whose rail and road links underline the long distances of the Canadian Shield.
