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 Mine-Canadian-Merrill.
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.

Mine-Canadian-Merrill is a locality in Chibougamau; Nord-du-Québec, Quebec, Canada. It is classified as a village / hamlet. Mine-Canadian-Merrill is located at 49.8722°N, 74.3339°W.
Mine-Canadian-Merrill rests upon the rugged, mineral-heavy ground of the Colline de la Sidérite, where the earth holds a quiet, metallic gravity. It lies 5.2 km south-south-east of Chibougamau, QC (from Chibougamau, QC: bearing 151°T), and is situated 15.9 km north-north-west of La Mine-Corner Bay. The low light of the northern sun catches the sharp edges of the terrain, casting long shadows across the shore of Lac Chibougamau as the water laps rhythmically against the rocky banks. This landscape feels immense and watchful, defined by the stillness that settles over the Colline de la Sidérite long before the stars emerge. The air here carries a crisp, thin quality, cooling rapidly as the day retreats, while the vast expanse of Lac Chibougamau anchors the horizon in a deep, reflective blue. Even when the wind rises to stir the pines, the silence of the surrounding wilderness persists, emphasizing the solitary strength of the site. The industrial legacy of Mine-Canadian-Merrill lingers in the character of the land, marking the earth with the quiet remains of a period defined by the extraction of what lay hidden beneath the surface. While the Rivière Chibougamau flows steadily some ten kilometers away, the life of the locality has always been directed toward the internal wealth of the Colline de la Sidérite. Work here demanded a certain resilience, a steady hand, and a familiarity with the uncompromising nature of the northern climate. Today, the stillness that occupies the site serves as a reminder of the generations who labored to bring the hidden resources of this region into the light, leaving Mine-Canadian-Merrill as a singular point of interest where human effort once met the stark, unyielding demands of the Canadian shield.
Mine-Canadian-Merrill surgit de la terre comme une promesse brute, nichée sur les rives du Lac Chibougamau, là où le relief de la Colline de la Sidérite dessine une frontière minérale contre l'immensité boréale. Ce site industriel porte en lui la gravité des profondeurs, une mémoire de roche extraite et de labeur acharné qui colore encore la lumière particulière des fins de journée sur les eaux sombres. À dix kilomètres, la Rivière Chibougamau poursuit son cours imperturbable, ignorant les cicatrices laissées par les hommes dans le sol pour en soutirer les richesses enfouies. La texture du paysage, marquée par le granit et le lichen, confère à Mine-Canadian-Merrill une allure de sentinelle solitaire, isolée dans cette étendue nordique où le froid aiguise les sens et ralentit le souffle. Chaque pierre, chaque pan de terrain raconte l'obstination de ceux qui ont bâti ici leur quotidien, affrontant une nature indifférente aux ambitions humaines. Dans le silence qui enveloppe les vestiges de l'activité minière, le vent apporte une fraîcheur métallique, rappelant que Mine-Canadian-Merrill demeure une présence singulière, une halte rigoureuse entre la masse imposante de la Colline de la Sidérite et les eaux vastes du Lac Chibougamau, dans une harmonie austère et dénuée d'artifice.
