McIlvenna Bay

McIlvenna Bay is a copper-zinc mine development project located in Saskatchewan, Canada. The project is operated by Foran Mining and represents one of the significant base metal deposits in the province. The deposit contains copper, zinc and other metals, positioning it within Canada's critical minerals strategy. McIlvenna Bay is situated in a region with established mining infrastructure and access to skilled labour. The project has progressed through feasibility and permitting stages, with development aimed at bringing the mine into production. Saskatchewan's mining-friendly regulatory environment and the province's experience with base metal operations support the project's advancement. The mine is expected to contribute to domestic and international supply chains for copper and zinc, both of which are essential for energy transition technologies and industrial applications. McIlvenna Bay forms part of Foran Mining's broader portfolio in the region and reflects growing investment in Canadian base metal projects.
