The feedback has been resoundingly positive for the mining technology exhibition that was held in an underground environment in Sudbury last week.
Don Duval, the CEO of NORCAT in Sudbury, was commenting on the four-day Mining Transformed event where scores of mining supply and mining technology companies set up to showcase their goods and services in an actual mine.
It was a first for Sudbury and for anywhere else for that matter. NORCAT billed the event as the “world’s first,” and Duval said the response from both the vendors and the investors was positive on all fronts. He said that was expected and he was pleased to see it happen.
