Kerr Addison Mines Ltd was a Toronto-based mining and gas company that owned various mines throughout Canada, including the Agnew Lake Mine, the Kerr-Addison Mine and Chesterville gold mine.

In the 1960s, Kerr Addison was Canada's largest gold producer.

The injury of a snowmobiler on company property in 1975 led to a Supreme Court of Canada judgement setting precedent for future Occupier's Liability cases in Canada.
