Floor Guide / CIM 2026

Who to See at CIM 2026.

Six hundred and thirty-four exhibitors line the floor in Vancouver for the 100th anniversary of the CIM Expo. Here are the booths we'd walk straight to, grouped by what they actually do, autonomy, drilling, electrification, fluid containment, and the rest of the unglamorous machinery that keeps Canadian mines running.

Editor's Note

Canadian Mining & Energy

We picked these companies because they either build something Canadian operators are quietly excited about, or are doing the work other people only talk about. The Spotlight up top is our shortest of short lists, the booths we'd walk to before anything else.

★ Spotlight

The booths to walk to first.

Our shortlist from across six hundred and thirty-four exhibitors, the operators we'd send a chief geologist or maintenance superintendent to before anyone else. If you only have time to walk a single aisle, walk straight to these booths.

Albarrie logo

Booth

2224

Albarrie

Canadian Dust Control Filterbags

Barrie-built dust collection bags and felt for HEC, baghouses, and high-temp processes. The quiet specialist Albarrie engineers use when a bag must run a year longer than the brochure says.

AGI Envirotank logo

Booth

1033

AGI Envirotank

Canadian Tank Fabrication API & ULC

If your project needs an API or ULC double-wall tank that won't get red-tagged on day one, this is the booth. Sherwood Park fabricators with a wall thicker than the spec sheet asks for.

MFE Inspection Solutions logo

Booth

450

MFE Inspection Solutions

Robotics NDT Confined Space

Elios drones for stope and stack inspections, Boston Dynamics Spot for plant rounds, and a Canadian service team that flies them for you when you need it. The booth to visit if you have a hazardous space and no good way to look inside.

Black Diamond Drilling Tools Canada logo

Booth

1229

Black Diamond Drilling Tools Canada

Drilling Tools DTH Top Hammer

Down-the-hole hammers, top-hammer steel, and rotary tooling held in stock in Sudbury. The Canadian dealer drillers actually call when a bit walks off the bench at 2 a.m.

Dingo logo

Booth

405

Dingo

Predictive Maintenance Reliability

Oil analysis, vibration, and condition data scored into a real reliability program your superintendent will actually run. The partner CMMS systems only pretend to be, with measured component-life extension to back the case.

Grydale North America logo

Booth

524

Grydale North America

Dust Collection Mobile

Fixed, mobile, and onboard dust collection built for the kind of community-impact assessment that closes a project. The Australian engineering you suddenly need when a pit is too close to a town.

/ 01

Autonomy, AI & The Connected Mine.

The connected-mine pitch is finally turning into product. These booths are the ones with hardware in production at Canadian sites today, autonomous mappers, energy intelligence on haul fleets, and the AI layer between the mill and the metallurgist.

Exyn logo

Booth

743

Exyn

Autonomous Mapping GPS-Denied

Philadelphia-built autonomous drones that map stopes, drifts, and any GPS-denied space without a pilot. Routinely pulled into Canadian operations when a stope geometry is too dangerous to scan by hand.

Cascadia Scientific logo

Booth

330

Robotics Remote Ops

Ontario robotics shop building purpose-built remote handling kit for the kind of jobs that should never put a person in the room.

/ 02

Drilling & Down-Hole.

Whatever you think about the cycle, drilling activity in Canada is up. These booths are the ones we'd send a chief geologist or a drill manager to first, Canadian dealers, hammer engineers, and the few service drillers who consistently make hole on schedule.

Black Diamond Drilling Tools Canada logo

Booth

1229

MFE Inspection Solutions logo

Booth

450

MFE Inspection Solutions

Expo Profile Drones Robotics

Elios 3 drones for stope inspections, Boston Dynamics Spot for plant rounds, and a service team that flies them for you. One of very few Canadian shops with both kit and crew.
