Catherine Paquette discovered an activity well appreciated by many tourists in Longue-Pointe-de-Mingan: picking labradorite, a semi-precious stone found on the beaches and whose reflections are accentuated when it is under the water.

Jean-Pierre Michaud, from Sept-Iles, talks about this picking as an activity that allows him to clear his mind. Every afternoon, he goes in search of treasures on the beach and in his free time, he makes jewelry with his finds.
