Dynamic Earth

Dynamic Earth is a science museum located in Greater Sudbury that operates from within a former mining site. The facility spans multiple levels with interactive exhibits, multimedia presentations, and educational displays focused on earth sciences and mining technology.

The museum opened in 2003 as an educational response to the region's deep mining heritage. It was developed to help visitors understand the geological processes and mining operations that shaped Northern Ontario.

The center serves as an educational hub where students and families learn about Northern Ontario's geological heritage through hands-on demonstrations and exhibits.

The museum is best visited between February and October when it operates on a regular schedule. Tours are available in English and French, and visitors should plan to spend time exploring the underground sections.

The museum features a seven-story underground demonstration mine that takes visitors through different eras of mining history. These detailed recreations show how mining techniques and working conditions evolved over time.
