This river crosses successively the cantons of Charron and Ducharme. This river is part of the Ashuapmushuan Wildlife Reserve. Forestry is the main economic activity of this valley; recreational tourism activities, second.
A secondary forest road (heading north-east) that connects to route 167 serves the upper part of the "Coquille River" valley passing north of Lake Liasse and South of "Coquille Lake". Route 167 between Chibougamau and Saint-Félicien, Quebec passes on the west side of the lower part of the river.
The surface of the Coquille River is usually frozen from early November to mid-May, however, safe ice circulation is generally from mid-November to mid-April.
The "Coquille River" originates at the mouth of "Coquille Lake" (length: 7.1 kilometres (4.4 mi); 405 metres (1,329 ft)) located in the township of Charron.
From the mouth of "Coquille Lake", the "Coquille River" flows over 20.5 kilometres (12.7 mi) according to the following segments:
4.7 kilometres (2.9 mi) southwesterly in Charron Township forming a southeasterly curve in marsh areas to the northern limit of Ducharme Township, corresponding to the dump (coming from the South-East) of "Lac des Charagnes";
