Black River-Matheson, population of approximately 2500, is the ideal place to settle within the pristine area of Northern Ontario. With affordable location and away from the fast pace of city life, this municipality offers a wide range of accessibility to natural resources and an easy reach to most of the amenities of a larger urban center, but at a fraction of the cost. Black River-Matheson is a friendly, bilingual and motivated community within which to raise a family and set down roots. 

Black River - Matheson connects three of Ontario's most productive gold mining areas. Five of its mines yield gold, and exploration for other minerals is underway. Power from high-voltage transmission lines running across the Township and central locations suited to businesses serving the mining industry offer support.
