History



Headquartered in Toronto, Dome was established in 1910 to operate the Dome Mine in Timmins, Ontario after a major discovery by a group working for W. S. Edwards in May 1909. The company later became Canada's largest gold producer.

For most of its existence, Dome Mines was Canada's largest gold producer.
Workers for subsidiary Dome Exploration, discovered the ore that became the Campbell Mine in Balmertown in 1944. Dome Exploration then became Campbell Red Lake Mines Limited. Other subsidiaries were Kiena Gold Mines Limited and Sigma Mines in Quebec.
The company entered the petroleum industry in 1950 with the creation of Dome Petroleum.
In 1987, under the leadership of Fraser M. Fell, Dome merged with the Vancouver mining company Placer Development to form Placer Dome. The new merged entity became the largest mining company in North America.
In 2006 Barrick Gold acquired Placer Dome.
