Whitby Abrasives — Serving Local Trades Across Ontario

Kirkland Lake is one of Ontario's iconic gold mining towns, home to Agnico Eagle's Macassa Mine — one of the highest-grade gold mines in the world — and situated in the Abitibi Greenstone Belt of northeastern Ontario. The town's economy is almost entirely defined by gold mining and the service trades that support it: underground contract mining, equipment maintenance and rebuild, mine supply, and construction for the mining sector. Whitby Abrasives is approximately 600 km south on Highway 11 and the 400.

Trusted by Kirkland Lake's Gold Mining Maintenance Contractors, Equipment Rebuild Shops & Mine Supply Trades

Kirkland Lake's active gold mining industry at Macassa and surrounding exploration and development projects generates consistent demand for heavy-duty grinding wheels, cutting discs, and industrial abrasives. Underground mining contractors go through cutting and grinding consumables on drill steel, conveyor infrastructure, and equipment frames during maintenance cycles. Equipment rebuild shops working on LHD loaders, haul trucks, and bolters for the Macassa Mine and surrounding operations require reliable abrasive supply.
