en.Wedoany.com Reported - The 2026 Canadian Mining Expo (CME) was held from June 9 to 11, 2026, at the McIntyre Complex in Timmins, Ontario. The expo attracted approximately 5,000 professional visitors and featured over 400 exhibitors, including global equipment suppliers, innovative enterprises, and mining producers. Concurrent events included the Indigenous Forum, a series of lectures on projects in the pipeline, a mining job fair, and the traditional Jackleg Drilling Competition.
The Canadian Mining Expo is one of the annual core events in Canada's mining sector. Timmins, located in northern Ontario, is a key mining region for gold and base metals. This year's expo brought together global equipment suppliers including Metso and MMD Canada. Metso showcased low-energy, high-efficiency crushing and screening solutions, while MMD Canada highlighted its mobile material sizer technology, designed for in-pit sizing and conveying to reduce haul truck energy consumption. In the outdoor exhibition area, Itec Equipment demonstrated the Morooka tracked carrier, which adapts to complex terrain with its ultra-low ground pressure. Echelle Canada exhibited industrial ladders, fall protection lifelines, and elevated access systems customized for mining environments. Additionally, multiple exhibitors presented "emotional intelligence" robots and monitoring systems capable of detecting operator fatigue, stress, and emotional states, advancing intelligent mine safety.
During the expo, the "Projects in the Pipeline" lecture series served as a key platform for business information dissemination. George Pirie, Ontario's Minister of Northern Economic Development and Growth, delivered a speech on the province's mining development. Canada Nickel announced construction decisions and drilling results for its flagship Crawford project, Galleon Gold for the West Cache project, and STLLR Gold for major new additions to the Porcupine mining area. Concurrently, Ontario's largest mining job fair was held, offering free job matching opportunities for job seekers with mining companies. The traditional Jackleg Drilling Competition, a classic event honoring miner skills, showcased both traditional and modern mining operational techniques.
Additionally, another premier North American mining event—the CIM CONNECT 2026 International Mining Exhibition, organized by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum—was held from May 3 to 6, 2026, at the Vancouver Convention Centre, coinciding with the 100th anniversary of its exhibition area. This event featured the Weir Group showcasing artificial intelligence-driven smart mine and data optimization platforms, BEUMER Group presenting bulk material handling solutions, Moxtek displaying X-ray solutions for mineral analysis and sorting, and China's Jiangsu Jiaxuan Intelligent Industrial Technology Co., Ltd. demonstrating permanent magnet direct drive system solutions.
