Birchtree Mine is an underground nickel mine, owned and operated by Vale Inco in the city of Thompson, Manitoba, Canada.

Birchtree mine originally opened in 1965 until 1978 when it was put in "standby" until 1988.

In 2008, it received the regional John T. Ryan trophy for the Prairies & Northwest Territories.
