Researched by Industrial Info Resources (Sugar Land, Texas)--With $2.98 billion in projects slated to begin construction in second-quarter 2016, Ontario is looking at its highest quarterly total investment value (TIV) in the past year. More than 90% of the total can be attributed to just three industries: Metals & Minerals, Power, and Food & Beverage; about two-thirds of the total is related to the mining industry alone.

As with Quebec, the Metals & Minerals Industry leads all others in TIV in Ontario, with $1.93 billion in projected kickoffs for the second quarter. These include Detour Gold Corporation's (TSX:DGC) (Toronto, Ontario) $234 million Detour Lake gold mine and mill near Cochrane. The company plans to expand the open pit facility's capacity from 91 million to 114 million tons per year. For more information on the project, which is still in the planning phase, see Industrial Info's project report.
The Power Industry is in a distant second place, with $706 million in projects set to begin construction from April through June. One of the largest is WPD Canada Corporation's (Mississauga, Ontario) $120 million construction of the White Pines Windfarm in Picton. The facility is expected to comprise 29 enclosed structural steel towers, featuring Repower's MM92-2.05-model wind turbine generators, each with a capacity of about 2.05 megawatts (MW). For more information on the project, which is now in its detailed engineering phase, see Industrial Info's project report.
The Food & Beverage Industry is looking at $117 million worth of projects set to kick off, the largest being Dare Foods Limited's (Kitchener, Ontario) $50 million cookie and cracker manufacturing plant additions in Cambridge. The company plans to perform structural renovations and upgrades at the 500,000-square-foot facility. For more information on the project, which is still in its planning phase, see Industrial Info's project report.
Here are the seven remaining highest-value projects set to begin construction in Ontario in the second quarter:
