Val-des-Sources, Administrative center in Eastern Townships, Quebec, Canada.
Val-des-Sources stands on the Nicolet River banks, bordered by three major cities: Drummondville, Sherbrooke, and Victoriaville in southeastern Quebec.
The Jeffrey mine, which operated for 120 years until 2011, transformed this location into one of the largest open-pit mining operations in North America.
The Festival des Gourmands brings together local food producers, chefs, and residents each August to celebrate regional culinary traditions.
Visitors can access comprehensive mining information and regional maps at the municipal office located at 345 Boulevard Saint-Luc.
The town changed its name from Asbestos to Val-des-Sources in December 2020 through a democratic process involving resident participation.
