Quebec Lithium Mine was a lithium mine in Quebec, Canada. The deposit was discovered in 1942 by Georges H. Dumont.
This mine was located 12 miles west of Barraute and 25 miles north west of Val-D'Or, Quebec.
At the beginning, Quebec Lithium had a five-year contract with Lithium Corporation of America for concentrates of Li2O (at 5 and 6%). Lithium Corporation of America was selling back this concentrate to the Atomic Energy Commission. When the United States government ceased to buy lithium, Quebec Lithium became unable to sell its lithium concentrate to Lithium Corporation of America. The company then built its own facilities (in October 1960) to produce lithium carbonate and later on, some lithium hydroxide for domestic usage. A certain kind of spodumen was sent to Kimble Glass at Columbus, Ohio for making glass. From 1959 on, this mine operated only on a periodic basis. Following a strike in October 1965 and due to the lack of sufficient market, the decision to close was taken in December 1966.
