Chibougamau Lake (elevation: 379 m) is discharged through the Commencement Bay, located northwest of the latter lake. From there, the current flows through rapids between the Gouin Peninsula and Portage Island, to Hello Bay, which is an extension of the Bateman Bay, “Dor\u00e9s Lake” (elevation: 378 metres (1,240\u00a0ft)).“Dor\u00e9s Lake” has a length of 21.3 kilometres (13.2\u00a0mi), a maximum width of 5.0 kilometres (3.1\u00a0mi) and an altitude of 378 metres (1,240\u00a0ft). The main bays are:North-East part: Hello (dump of Chibougamau Lake, Bateman, Dizon and Proulx;Central part: Cedard;Southwest part: Hidden, McQuade, Malouf, Guthrie and Ballicky.The main islands are:Northeast part: Merrill Island;Central part: Hamel Island and Noll Island.The mouth of “Lac aux Dor\u00e9s” is located at the end of Malouof Bay in the southwestern part of the lake, namely:4.8 kilometres (3.0\u00a0mi) south of the center of Obalski hamlet;13.8 kilometres (8.6\u00a0mi) South of downtown Chibougamau;32.4 kilometres (20.1\u00a0mi) east of the village center of Chapais, Quebec;112.8 kilometres (70.1\u00a0mi) north-east of the mouth of the Chibougamau River (confluence with the Opawica River);362 kilometres (225\u00a0mi) south-east of the mouth of the Nottaway River.[1]The main hydrographic slopes near the “Lac aux Dor\u00e9s” are:From the mouth of “Lac aux Dor\u00e9s”, is located southwest of the lake, where the current flows along the Chibougamau River.Toponymy[edit]During the passage in this sector in 1870, a mining prospecting team, James Richardson then makes a summary description of this lake, without designating it toponymically.At the beginning of the 20th century, gangs of the Cree community began to settle in the area. In 1901, surveyor Henry O’Sullivan wrote that this picturesque, gently sloping watercourse is surrounded by high mountains to the north and east. A few years later, several deposits of ore, copper, silver and gold were identified. As early as 1914, a publication reporting “Lac Dor\u00e9” pointed out that its denomination is associated with the main species of fish that was fished there.Especially since the 1930s and 1940s, the town of Chibougamau has developed a few kilometers to the northwest. Several mining sites have been exploited around the lake. Toponymic variant: Lac Obalski.[2]The toponym “Lac aux Dor\u00e9s” was formalized on December 5, 1968, by the Commission de toponymie du Qu\u00e9bec when it was created.[3]Notes and references[edit]See also[edit] (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki40\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki40\/dores-lake-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Dor\u00e9s Lake – Wikipedia"}}]}]
