The Odyssey Mine, now under construction, will develop the continuity of the deposit in the Canadian Malartic and Barnat pits through four main mineralized zones at depth: East Malartic, Odyssey North, Odyssey South and East Gouldie. We will become one of Canada’s largest underground gold mines. We are located approximately 3 km east of the entrance to the Town of Malartic.
