About Asbestos

Asbestos is a town in the Estrie district of southeastern Quebec, Canada on the Nicolet River. Asbestos is the seat of Les Sources Regional County Municipality, once in the past known as the Asbestos Regional County Municipality. The town covers a district of 29.67 square kilometers, including land picked up in light of the merger of the City of Asbestos with the Municipality of Trois-Lacs on Dec 8, 1999. At the 2011 assessment, 7,096 people abided in Asbestos.

It is masterminded in the point of convergence of a square molded by the urban groups of Drummondville, Sherbrooke and Victoriaville, and the Nicolet River toward the north. It is the site of the Jeffrey mine, so far the world's greatest asbestos mine, which has for a long while been the town's greatest supervisor, and of the now-close Magnola magnesium refinery. It was the site of the prestigious 1949 Asbestos Strike.
