Aurizon Mines digs for gold in the Abitibi region of Quebec. Aurizon's primary property is the Casa Berardi Mine, which began operations in late 2006. That same year, Northgate Minerals offered to buy Aurizon for $385 million. Aurizon's Board recommended that shareholders reject the Northgate offer as insufficient, the reasoning being that the company has spent so much time and money developing Casa Berardi that it made no sense to dilute its stake in the project just as it begins production. Also in 2006, Aurizon bought the Joanna gold and Kipawa gold/uranium properties in Quebec, both of which are still in the exploration stage.
