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-Norbeau.
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-Norbeau is a locality in Chibougamau; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. La Mine-Norbeau is located at 49.9589°N, 74.3094°W.
La Mine-Norbeau rests within the rugged, coniferous expanse of the Canadian Shield, where the earth holds a quiet, metallic stillness beneath the shadow of the Mont Conjurer. It lies 6.6 km north-east of Chibougamau, QC (from Chibougamau, QC: bearing 40°T), and is situated 24.6 km north-north-west of La Mine-Corner Bay. The terrain surrounding La Mine-Norbeau is defined by the dark, reflective surface of Lac Norbeau, which sits just 2 km away, offering a glassy stillness that mirrors the shifting grey light of northern afternoons. Beyond the immediate rise of the land, the Rivière Chibougamau winds through the boreal brush some 8 km distant, its presence marked by the low, rhythmic sigh of moving water that carries the cold scent of stone and pine. The air here feels thin and sharp, carrying the weight of a long winter that lingers well into the spring, yet the land possesses a stark beauty in the way the low sun catches the frost on the black spruce needles. The history of La Mine-Norbeau is bound to the extraction of gold, a pursuit that carved a distinct industrial character into the surrounding bedrock and dictated the scale of human endeavor in this remote sector of the Nord-du-Québec. While the primary activity has shifted, the legacy of the site persists in the hushed, orderly remains of infrastructure that stand as silent markers of past labor. Life in the vicinity of La Mine-Norbeau continues with a deliberate focus, shaped by the demands of a northern climate and the necessity of self-reliance. The local economy and the daily persistence of those who traverse these paths honor a tradition of resilience, where the quiet intensity of the wilderness demands a steady, watchful respect from all who work the ground.
La Mine-Norbeau s’élève parmi les roches anciennes du Nord-du-Québec, là où la lumière crépusculaire s’attarde longuement sur les crêtes austères du Mont Conjurer. Sous un ciel immense et souvent glacé, le terrain révèle une rudesse minérale qui a forgé le destin des hommes venus chercher l’or dans les profondeurs de cette terre tourmentée. À deux kilomètres de là, le Lac Norbeau dort dans un silence immobile, capturant les teintes cuivrées du soleil déclinant, tandis que la Rivière Chibougamau poursuit son cours sinueux à huit kilomètres de distance, drainant les eaux sombres des forêts boréales environnantes. La Mine-Norbeau porte en elle le poids de cette extraction patiente et solitaire, une mémoire de fer et de pierre qui résiste aux assauts de l’hiver. Les structures abandonnées ou maintenues en éveil rappellent que le travail de la terre demeure une lutte contre l'immensité sauvage. Ici, le vent murmure entre les conifères, transportant le souvenir des efforts humains qui ont marqué le sol de leur passage sans jamais altérer la superbe indifférence des reliefs. Ce cadre, dépouillé de tout artifice, impose aux visiteurs une contemplation rigoureuse, presque mystique, devant cette étendue où la géologie dicte ses propres lois à la vie qui tente de s'y maintenir.
