Joubin, Franc R. (Franc Renault), 1911- : Francis Renault Joubin was born on 16 November 1911 in San Francisco of French parents. The family moved to Victoria in 1914 where Joubin's father enlisted in the Canadian Army and died of wounds in 1918. After a struggle to obtain enough funds, Joubin went to Victoria College in 1931 and then to the University of British Columbia where he graduated in geology in 1936. Joubin joined Pioneer Gold Mines in B.C., and was its exploration geologist 1938-1948 journeying over much of Canada for it. In 1948 he moved to Toronto to become a consulting geologist specializing in uranium. He was an early participant in the Beaverlodge uranium find in Saskatchewan. His knowledge of uranium resulted in the location and development of the "Big Z" uranium deposit at Elliot Lake, Ontario. In partnership with the mining financier Joe Hirshhorn, 56,000 acres were staked, a mining boom started and twelve large uranium mines went into production. Joubin was also deeply involved in the creation of the town of Elliot Lake.

In the late 1950s Joubin was a consultant to mining companies, notably the British giant Rio Tinto. From 1958 to 1962 he reported on their mining properties spread over five continents. In 1962 Joubin became a full time, and after 1966 a part-time, consultant to the Bureau of Technical Assistance of the United Nations. He visited over 50 countries to locate mineral deposits and to make recommendations for further exploration and development. He made major discoveries in Trinidad, Poland, India and Somalia. Joubin continued to work as a consultant to mining companies and individuals in Canada. He was a founder of Sogepet, a consortium set up to search for oil and gas in Hudson Bay. In spite of a large investment and several wells drilled, nothing was found.

Throughout his career Joubin has had a profound interest in improving the human condition. He has supported university students in completing their education, given generously to universities, supported organizations such as the East-West Round Table, the Canadian Peace Research Institute, the Antigonish Movement Fund as well as craft groups and local historical societies. His awards include honorary degrees from the following universities: British Columbia, St. Francis Xavier, Toronto, Dalhousie and York. He has won medals from the Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, the Engineering Institute of Canada, the Canadian Nuclear Association, the Prospectors and Developers Association and the Ontario Crafts Council. He was made a member of the Order of Canada (1983), Order of Ontario (1988) and the Canadian Mining Hall of Fame (1989).
