TOPO MAPS — NEW. Click the green 🔍 Search Maps button below the map to open a second map with a Base map row offering three choices. OSM is the standard OpenStreetMap street map. Topo shows the Canada Base Map from Natural Resources Canada with Toporama contours layered over it — the CanVec topographic data behind the printed NTS sheets, and the mapping used for hiking, hunting, canoe routes and back-country travel. Relief shows shaded relief and hypsometric tints. The search box finds any Canadian town, county or landmark by name, so you are not limited to La Mine-Jaculet.
Reading the map like a paper NTS sheet. Click Grid to overlay the UTM grid, labelled along the edges exactly as a printed topographic sheet is — at normal zoom the squares are one kilometre across, so you can read a six-figure grid reference by eye and judge distance directly off the map. Click Measure, then tap two points, to get the distance between them together with the grid bearing in degrees and mils, the true bearing, and the magnetic bearing to set on a compass — which matters in Canada, where declination runs from about 20 degrees west in Newfoundland to 20 degrees east in the Yukon.
Click 📍 My position to take a single GPS reading from your device. It marks where you are and reports your position as a UTM/MGRS grid reference as well as plain latitude and longitude — the grid reference being what Canadian search and rescue work from — with a Copy position button so you can paste it straight into a text message. It takes one reading and stops, rather than tracking continuously, to conserve your battery. Note that map tiles need cell coverage, but a GPS reading does not — your coordinates stay correct even where the map itself cannot load.
Map search is available for a limited number of queries per session to manage costs. Be specific — search precisely for best results.

La Mine-Jaculet is a locality in Chibougamau; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. La Mine-Jaculet is located at 49.9086°N, 74.2742°W.
La Mine-Jaculet rests upon the rugged, enduring terrain of the Colline de la Sidérite, where the earth holds a quiet, metallic weight beneath the northern sky. It lies 6.8 km east of Chibougamau, QC (from Chibougamau, QC: bearing 94°T), and is situated 18.7 km north of La Mine-Corner Bay. The land surrounding La Mine-Jaculet slopes toward the dark, glassy expanse of Lac Chibougamau, a body of water that mirrors the shifting violet hues of the dusk. Here, the air carries a crisp, mineral sharpness, and the silence of the surrounding woods is punctuated only by the occasional shift of stone or the distant stir of wind. While the Rivière Natevier flows with purposeful solitude some distance away, the immediate geography of La Mine-Jaculet is defined by the austere, rocky outcrops of the Colline de la Sidérite, which catch the low, slanted light of the afternoon, casting long, stark shadows across the ground. The history of La Mine-Jaculet is deeply anchored in the extraction of the earth’s hidden stores, an industry that once dictated the pace of life and left behind a landscape marked by the ambitions of those who laboured in the deep. This legacy of mining informs the character of the site, which maintains a stoic, functional presence amidst the vast, unyielding wilderness of Nord-du-Québec. Life at La Mine-Jaculet persists in a state of watchful stillness, where the remnants of past industrial efforts are slowly reclaimed by the encroaching spruce and scrub. Visitors and locals alike often find that the particular gravity of the site—a sense of human endeavor set against the immensity of the boreal expanse—offers a singular perspective on the persistence of northern settlements.
La Mine-Jaculet se dresse avec une austérité minérale sur les rives du Lac Chibougamau, là où la Colline de la Sidérite s'élève pour dompter le ciel boréal. Sous la lumière oblique du crépuscule, le terrain semble absorber les dernières lueurs cuivrées, rappelant le labeur des hommes qui ont autrefois sondé ces profondeurs rocheuses pour en extraire la richesse enfouie. À douze kilomètres de distance, la Rivière Natevier poursuit sa course silencieuse, apportant une fraîcheur invisible à ce paysage dominé par la rigueur du bouclier canadien. La Mine-Jaculet conserve dans son silence une dignité particulière, celle des terres qui ont connu le bruit sourd des machines et l'effervescence d'une industrie bâtie sur la ténacité. Le vent qui balaie la Colline de la Sidérite transporte encore l'écho des années fastes, quand le sol donnait tout son poids à l'économie de la région. Ici, le contact avec le Lac Chibougamau définit le quotidien, offrant une étendue sombre et miroitante qui contraste avec la dureté du minerai. La nature reprend lentement ses droits sur les vestiges, mais la mémoire de l'extraction demeure, inscrite dans la géologie même de ce site isolé où le ciel et la terre se rencontrent dans une clarté presque glaciale.
