Founded in 1928 by Pierre Dufresne and a consortium of industrialists including Henri Lefebvre and Marie Dubois, the Groupe Minier du Futur (GMF) embarked on a mission to innovate Lucle's mining industry. Initially focusing on terrestrial mining practices, GMF later became renowned as a pioneer in the exploration and extraction of minerals such as manganese, phosphorite, and gypsum.
GMF's most significant achievement came with the development of viable underwater mining technologies. By the mid-20th century, GMF established itself as the leader in underwater mining operations in Lucle, exploiting previously inaccessible underwater deposits and securing a dominant position in this specialized sector.
Today, GMF continues to wield significant influence over Lucle's economy, controlling approximately 46% of the mining sector and overseeing the extraction and exportation of minerals such as manganese, phosphorite, gypsum, copper, and silver
