💡Planning to attend CIM Connect? Hop on board the MineConnect Bus to CIM Connect 2025 in Montreal – supported by the City of Temiskaming Shores!
Application Deadline: March 21st, 2025.
CIM CONNECT 2025 – May 4th to 7th in Montreal – offers three days of immersive learning and knowledge sharing, enhanced by professional development courses preceding the convention. Its extensive trade show will feature companies presenting the latest products and services, creating a unique opportunity for networking and discovery.
The theme “Minerals, Innovation, and the Energy Transition” of CIM CONNECT 2025 reflects the industry’s evolving focus from the extraction process (“mining”) to the economic value of the product (“minerals”). This shift emphasizes the importance of circularity, which goes beyond traditional mining by considering the recovery of materials that have already been extracted, such as tailings and other secondary sources. While achieving full circularity remains a long-term goal, this theme encourages forward-thinking and innovative approaches to sourcing minerals. It underscores the need to adapt to changing economic and environmental landscapes, promoting sustainable practices and technological advancements that will shape the future of the industry.
The Canadian Institute of Mining Metallurgy and Petroleum’s (CIM) mission is to: cultivate knowledge, best practices and innovation to support our members, improve awareness of the minerals and metals industry in society and evolve the sector responsibly.
