Kirkland Lake is a city and municipality in the Timiskaming District of Northeastern Ontario, Canada. The 2016 population, according to Statistics Canada, is 7,981.

The community name is based on a nearby lake which in turn is named after Winnifred Kirkland, a secretary of the Ontario Department of Mines in Toronto. The lake was named by surveyor Louis Rorke in 1907. Ms. Kirkland never visited the city, and the lake that wore it no longer exists due to mine tailings. This community consists of Kirkland Lake (Teck Twp), as well as Swastika, Chaput Hughes, Bernhardt, and Morrisette Twp.

Kirkland Lake is built on gold, but is also famous for producing world-renowned hockey players. Indeed, the legendary hockey announcer Foster Hewitt called Kirkland Lake "the city that made the NHL." The city celebrates it through Hockey Heritage North which has been renamed Heritage North.

Until January 1, 1972, the city was known as Teck Township. The legislation was introduced, on July 20, 1971 to change the name of the townspeople to the Lake Kirkland City, effective January 1, 1972.

Histori

Tom Price found a stone containing gold on a visit to the area in 1906.

In 1911, important claims were made along Main Break. John Hunton staked his claim on February 18, 1911, which was included as Hunton Gold Mines Ltd. in April 1914, which eventually became part of Kirkland Amalgamated. Stephen Orr filed a claim on February 22, 1911, the basis of the Teck-Hughes Mine and Orr Gold Mines Ltd, established in June 1913. George Minaker staked a claim on February 23, 1911, part of which he sold to Oakes in September 1912, Lake Shore. John Reamsbottom filed a claim on April 18, 1911 which became part of the Teck-Hughes Mine. C.A. McKane staked his claim on April 20, 1911, which became Lake Kirkland Gold Mine. A. Maracle staked a claim on June 5, 1911 which became part of Townsite's claim. Melville McDougall staked his claim on June 27, 1911, which was transferred to Oakes on September 6, 1912, and became part of the Lake Shore Mine. Jack Matchett staked his claim on July 7, 1911, later acquired by Oakes, who became part of the Townsite Mine. On July 10, 1911, Dave Elliott staked his claim to the Macassa Mine. "Swift" Burnside staked a claim on July 26-28, 1911 which became part of Tough Burnside Tough-Oakes. Bill Wright filed a claim on 27-29 July 1911, and on 16 September 1911 with his brother-in-law Ed. Hargreaves, which is part of the Sylvanite Mine. This claim extends to the southeast part of the lake. More importantly, Wright finds free gold near the future location of the Shaft Discovery. Ed. Horne staked a claim on October 12, 1911, which became part of the Townsite Mine, and incorporated Kirkland Townsite Gold Mines Ltd in 1917. On January 8, 1912, Harry Oakes partnered up with the Tough plus Clem brothers. Foster, who owns the Foster Silver Mine in Cobalt, staked a claim that incorporated Number 2 Vein and ultimately led to the incorporation of Tough-Oakes Gold Mines Ltd. in 1913. Oakes filed additional claims on July 30, 1912, and Wright on August 26, 1912, both at in the lake and eventually become part of the Lake Shore Mine.

In 1914, there was an operating mine, the Tough-Oakes, which included electricity sent from Charlton. Settlements have formed in the southwestern arm of the lake, which includes post offices, shops and hotels.

To maximize tax revenues from existing and potential mines in the area, the six-square-mile Teck Township Company was formed with Wellington J. McLeod as the first in 1919. Their first task was to establish public facilities, including roads and water pipes, in rapidly growing areas. Kirkland Lake had many quarries, in the early years, including Teck-Hughes (1917-1968), Lake Shore (1918-1968), Kirkland Minerals (1919-1960), Wright-Hargreaves (1921-1965), Sylvanite (1927 ) -1961), Tough-Oakes-Burnside (later Toburn) (1913-1953), and Macassa Mine (1933-1999).

Camp Lake Kirkland earned gold worth $ 636,667 in 1918 and it increased to $ 17 million in 1930. As Pain points out, "Kirkland Lake Camp came to occupy a very important position in the mining world." By 1934, production had reached $ 34,000,000 and 2,000,000 tons were milled each year. The peak work of 4761 wage earners occurred in 1939, but it declined to 2064 in 1944. The population of 1939 was 24,200.

At the beginning of the World War II gold production in the area declined due to missing personnel into the war industry more important. In 1942, gold mining was declared a non-essential industry for war effort which resulted in gold mines across the country being at a lower priority for personnel and supplies relative to basic metal producers. After the war, local troops returned to the newly created Federal area in the northern part of the city. The Kirkland Lake Cemetery is a member of the Commonwealth Graves War Commission and is the site of 12 soldiers' graves, and 3 Canadian troops killed during the Second World War.

Kirkland Lake's first fire station was established in 1935 and the second fire hall in 1955.

In 1963, the Adams Mine open pit began to develop its iron ore resources. The mine will remain in production until 1990.

The Kirkland Lake Community Complex, now the Joe Mavrinac Community Complex, opened in 1979. In the early eighties, LAC Minerals reopened the main shaft of the Lake Shore Mine and worked from 1982 to 1987 to extract the abandoned golden bag. Between 1987 and 1991 the Vancouver-based Eastmaque gold mine reprocessed tailings, or "slimes", from inefficient initial plant operations, extracted 70,000 ounces of gold.

Between October and December 1988, Kirkland Lake was the filming location for the drama Termini Station .

On Sunday morning, May 20, 2012, a forest fire was found about 3 km (1.9 mi) north of Lake Kirkland, which grew to 2,757 ha (6,810 acres) on the afternoon of May 21, causing a state of emergency to be declared. Residential areas and cottages at Goodfish Lake and Nettie Lakes and one street in Chaput Hughes were evacuated that afternoon. Kirkland Lake Gold and AuRico Gold, have ceased operations due to fire damage in the power grid and local schools were closed. On May 29, an emergency was lifted, as the fire was certainly no longer a threat to Kirkland Lake, although it was not yet under control.

On December 18, 2012, the city council voted to remove fluoride from the local water treatment facility, after the damage left town with a bill of $ 360,000.

Geology

Kirkland Lake is located within Abitibi's greenstone belt and Abitibi's gold belt. The main geological features at Kirkland Lake Camp are Kirkland Lake Break, or Main Break. This breakthrough is a vein located along a thrust fault that stretches from east to west and drops sharply to the south. The mine shaft area is all along this Break. Gold occurs in quartz veins in spatial relationships with these errors. The main mines were in 1960, east-west, including Toburn, Sylvanite, Wright-Hargreaves, Lake Shore, Teck Hughes, Kirkland Minerals, and Macassa.

In the early days of filing a claim, most miners tried to understand the lateral extent of the eastern-western veins that define Main Break, as well as the corresponding parallel veins, eg South Vein, No. 2 Vein, No. 6 Vein, No. 7 Vein, etc. Most importantly, prospecting is very broad with the hope of an extended vein below the southern part of Kirkland Lake.

Telluride minerals are present in Tough-Oakes ore. They are also present at the Sylvanite Mine, although sylvanite is not one of them. The Sylvanite Mine started a 200-ton factory in 1927 and the axle reached 2000 feet in 1930.

Kirkland Lake Gold Mines Ltd. was founded in 1913 before the property was taken over by Cobalt's Beaver Consolidated Mines Ltd. after a tunnel drowned 80 feet. They formed Lake Kirkland Gold Mining Company in 1915 and the main axle drowned 800 feet, which drove the building at the factory in 1919. Shafts reached a depth of 1,600 feet before the mine closed in 1924. The operation resumed in 1926 with new financing. organized by Dr. JB Tyrrell, and high-grade ore found at 2475 feet. By 1930, the mine had reached a depth of 4000 feet and had obtained claims of Chaput-Highes in the south. This property was acquired by Kirkland Minerals Corporation in 1956.

Tough-Oakes produced 213 tons of high grade ores in 1914. Operations included five stamps for amalgamation plants plus a cyanide plant. However, the presence of high grade ores in the vein was terminated at a 300-foot level and the mine was turned off in 1918. This property was consolidated with Burnside to form Tough-Oakes Burnside Gold Mines Ltd in 1923 and Burnside No. 3 shafts deepened to 1000 feet. The operation went bankrupt in 1928. The operation resumed as Toburn in 1932, as a subsidiary of the American Consolidation and Purification Company.

Lake Shore Mines Ltd was established in February 1914. Oakes proceeded by sending pieces from its axis in South Vein towards the anticipated Main Break beneath the lake in the north. This cross found a high-grade ore and a 100-ton plant operating in March 1918. Axle No. 1 they reach a depth of 1600 feet and axis no. they were 1000 feet deep in 1930 and considered a "magic mine" by Pain There were 1,600 feet of high-grade ore at 1000 feet and 2400 feet at an altitude of 2400 feet.

Wright-Hargreaves Mines Ltd. was established in 1916. The Wright-Hargreaves mine has a 100 ton per day plant operating in 1921 and the shaft reaches a depth of 2000 feet in 1930. Nearly 900 feet of high-grade ore was found between Level 500 feet to 1750.

In 1916, the Teck-Hughes Mine built a 50-ton cyanide plant after the No. 1 axle. 1 reaches a depth of 500 feet. In 1923, the company was reorganized as Teck-Highes Gold Mines Ltd, which included Orr's claim in the south. The central shaft reached a depth of 2,980 feet and the southern axle sank in 1928 to reach a depth of 3,600 feet. Factory 1000 tons per day operated in 1930. High grade ores up to 1000 feet found on six levels.

Macassa Mines Ltd. held in 1926, including Elliott's claim. The factory operation began in 1933 and acquired United Kirkland Gold Mines Ltd. claiming in the south.

The lake itself was gradually filled by the mill's tailings, so the water was gone by 1930. In 1960, 1500 miles of underground work was in the Kirkland Lake camp and 12 miles from the direct lifting shaft. Lake Shore Mine and Wright-Hargreaves have the deepest depth of work in the world, at an altitude of 8,200 feet below the surface.

Geography and ecology

Kirkland Lake includes the towns of Teck, Bernhardt, and Morrisette.

Kirkland Lake is located in the resource-rich Shield Precambrian, an ancient geological core of the North American continent. Nearby is the Arctic watershed, the drainage division at 318 m (1,043 ft). The rivers to the south of the elevation flow into a drainage basin that includes Lake Ontario and the Saint Lawrence River, while the river in the north stream runs into Hudson Bay.

Locally-sighted local landmarks include Mount Cheminis, rising 500 m (1,600 ft) above sea level, and many small lake boilers, dredged from rocks during the last Ice Age and filled with clear water.

Black pine, pine jack, trembling aspen, white birch, white pine tree, popsel balsam, and balsam fir is the dominant tree in the area. A prominent form of forest in this part of the black-pine distribution is the black pine/feathermoss pine forest, which characteristically shows a fairly dense canopy and has a feathermosses forest floor. Moose, beaver, muskrat, snowshoe rabbits, as well as various predators roam the area, including marten, ermine, fisher, beaver, black bear, wolf, and lynx. Many wetlands and lakes support a variety of species of birds, such as large blue daggers, ducks, geese, and symbols from the north, the common loon. Birds and birds that live in the forest are also numerous, including grouse, jungle, robin, blue jays, and gray jay as well as birds of prey such as eagles.

Climate

Kirkland Lake enjoys four different seasons. Spring and fall offer a mixture of warm, sunny days and cool, cool nights. The summer is comfortably warm, with dry air and temperatures reaching into the mid-20 degree Celsius range (mid 70s Fahrenheit). Winter temperatures may seem fast, but high winds and high humidity are rare, allowing citizens to take full advantage of outdoor recreational activities.

Demographics

Kirkland Lake is the ninth largest community in Northern Ontario. Over the last 35 years, the population has declined by more than a third from 12,000 in 1986. This decline reflects the closure of a mine that has historically been the largest company in the region. The 2011 Census did reveal a 3.0% increase to 8,493 residents after the initial population published in 2011 of 8,133 was corrected by Statistics Canada. However, at the 2016 census, the population was seated at 7,981, a further 6.0%

Economy

Top local entrepreneurs are (In 2009):

The city suffered an economic downturn in the late 1900s, with the original mine closure. It ended in 2001, when Foxpoint Resources (now Kirkland Lake Gold Inc. or KLG) buys five mining claims in the city and begins doing intensive exploration work. KLG managed to resuscitate the local mining site, discovering a new mineralized zone which, combined with rising gold prices, transformed the surrounding city. Today, Kirkland Lake is probably one of the most successful communities of its size in Northern Ontario. Some of the latest developments include:

  • Kirkland Lake Gold Ltd. continues to expand its operations. Since December 2002, the company's confirmed gold reserves have increased 160% to 2,022,000 tonnes with an average of 0.46 ounces per ton containing a total of 927,000 ounces of gold. In 2003, the Company commenced a $ 21 million 3-year exploration program targeted to add 15,000,000 tonnes of ore to reserves and resources. Currently, more than 500 personnel directly or indirectly work at the mine site. Based on current resources, the mine has an age range of 12-15 years. The recently announced $ 16 million expansion in exploration activities has already paid dividends. The mine recently announced the discovery of the richest ore veins ever found in the history of Kirkland Lake camp, a move that will significantly increase mine life.
  • While the forestry industry has been hit hard across Canada, its impact on Lake Kirkland has been reduced by the conversion of sawn timber Kenogami Tembec Forest Products Group into a value-added center for finger-linked wood making. The new center, located on the outskirts of KL, opened in July 2006. It will employ between 70 and 92 workers. Under an innovative Public-Private partnership, the city government works with Rosko Forestry Operations to set up a specialized sawmill at Archer Drive Industrial Park that will be sold to the Canadian market.
  • The local tourism industry has provided much needed depth to the local economy. Star attractions include the Northern History Museum at Sir Harry Oakes Chateau, Miners' Memorial, and Hockey Heritage North (an 18,000 square foot interactive facility (1,700 m 2 ) that tells the story of hockey to the north). Future attractions include improvements from the historic Toburn Headphones. Event-based tourism is also strong. Some of the most popular draws include a drag racing event in summer and a national snow crossing event in winter.
  • The prospects for urban white-collar expansion are excellent. Two new high schools as well as long-term care facilities, and a promise of a new medical center to make the community more attractive to professionals in the fields of medicine and education. Veterans Affairs Canada is also developing its client service operations. The local office is now the main service bureau for more than 100,000 clients in central and eastern Canada.

These good news are complemented by a number of regional developments that will have a positive impact as KL is the economic hub of the northern Timiskaming District, and a key supplier of products, people and services to regional activities. As an example:

  • The steady rise in gold prices has brought other mining projects to the feasibility stage. Queenston Mining Inc. announced promising results in Upper Beaver Properties. Northgate Minerals has poured over $ 20 million into exploration work and moved forward with mining operations at the Young-Davidson property near Matachewan. According to the company, the site has the potential of producing 150,000 ounces of gold per year for a decade. In addition, more discoveries are coming online because Discover Abitibi's mineral exploration program.
  • St. Andrew Goldfields will begin production at the Holloway-Holt Gold Mine Complex near Matheson in the second quarter of 2007. The mine has an estimated production rate of 75,000-100,000 ounces of gold per year over the next seven years, and will employ more than 100 people..
  • Tres-Or Resources Ltd. continues to return high quality results from diamond exploration efforts in southwest Kirkland Lake. The wealth of findings, the large size of the hosted kimberlite pipes, plus the estimated low construction and operational costs of the mine in this area indicate a very positive future in the field of entirely new economic activity. Exploration continues. If more kimberlite structures are found, and diamond prices increase as expected, a mine can be made within 10 years.

Throughout the 1990s, one of the city's dominant political and economic controversies surrounded a proposal to deliver Toronto's waste to the Adams Mine, an abandoned mine in Boston Township just outside Kirkland Lake.

Kirkland Lake is also self-sufficient when it comes to power production with generators that generate up to 117MW.

Kirkland Lake also has a shopping center with shops including Ardene, The Source, Carlton Cards, Dollarama, easyhome, Hart Stores, North Shore Outfitters, ReMax and Warehouse One.
