Closed in 1985, the mine has been converted into an interpretation centre called La Cité de l’Or (the city of gold). In authentic miner’s gear, tour a real mine 300 ft. underground. This subterranean experience is complemented by a tour of the surface buildings, including the analysis laboratory, where you can learn about gold processing.
