Gold is found mainly in Ontario and Quebec and British Columbia in Canada. Ontario was the leading producer of gold in 2001 in Canada with a total output of 80.4 tons. Most of the gold in this area is from the two mines in Red Lake and the three mines in the vicinity of Hemlo. Quebec is Canada's second largest producer. In 2001 it produced a total of 34 tons while British Columbia produced 24.4 tons.

After South Africa, USA and Australia, Canada is one of the world's largest producers of Gold. It is also one of the biggest producers of official gold coins. The Royal Canadian mint produces and sells the high quality Canadian maple Leaf series. In 2003 Canada produced nearly 140,529 kilograms of gold from around 330 gold mines, however today most of Canada's reserves have been exhausted and many mines have been shut down.

About one-fifth of the gold in Canada is produced as a by-product of base-metal mines. The discovery of gold in Canada was first made in 1823. It was found along the shores of the River "Chaudiere", which is in the Eastern Townships of Quebec. Then in 1958, more gold was discovered in the sands of the River Fraser in the interior of BC. Gold mining camps in Canada are mostly located in Ontario.
