CIM 2026 Floor Guide: Who to See in Vancouver

Six hundred and thirty-four exhibitors will line the floor at CIM Connect 2026, the 100th anniversary of the CIM Expo. We published our floor guide ahead of the show, the booths we'd walk straight to and a short note on why each one is worth your time.

Six hundred and thirty-four exhibitors will line the floor at CIM Connect 2026 in Vancouver from May 3 to 6, the 100th anniversary of the CIM Expo. We've published our editorial floor guide ahead of the show, the booths we'd walk straight to and a short note on why each one is worth your time.

The guide is organised the way most operators actually walk a show: by problem to solve, not by alphabet. Nine editorial categories, six Spotlight cards at the top, and roughly forty picks across the floor.

Spotlight: the booths to walk to first

Our shortlist from across the full exhibitor list, the operators we'd send a chief geologist or maintenance superintendent to before anyone else.

  • Albarrie (booth 2224), Barrie-built filterbags and felt for HEC, baghouses, and high-temp processes.
  • AGI Envirotank (booth 1033), Sherwood Park double-wall API and ULC tanks fabricated to a wall thickness drillers actually trust.
  • MFE Inspection Solutions (booth 450), Elios drones and Boston Dynamics Spot for stope inspections, with a Canadian service team that flies them for you.
  • Black Diamond Drilling Tools Canada (booth 1229), domestic stock of DTH bits, top-hammer steel, and rotary tooling out of Sudbury.
  • Dingo (booth 405), oil analysis, vibration, and condition data scored into a real reliability program your superintendent will actually run.
  • Grydale North America (booth 524), fixed, mobile, and onboard dust collection built for the kind of community-impact assessment that closes a project.

Nine categories of editor picks

Below the Spotlight, the floor is grouped into nine sections that map to how operators actually evaluate exhibitors:

  • Autonomy, AI and the Connected Mine, with Exyn, NTWIST, Cascadia Scientific, Schlam, RPMGlobal, and Remote Robotic Systems.
  • Drilling and Down-Hole, with Black Diamond, Epiroc, Rocktech, and Forage G4.
  • Inspection, NDT and Asset Integrity, with MFE, Cleansolv, AESSEAL Canada, Dingo, and DriverCheck.
  • Heavy Lift, Haul and Remote Logistics, with Mammoet, Sarens Canada, Hedweld, and AFD Petroleum.
  • Conveying, Wear and Mineral Processing, with Fenner Dunlop, Eriez, Roytec Global, SKF Canada, and Pneumat Systems.
  • Power, Electrification and Energy Transition, with ABB, Atlas Copco, SFC Energy, kWattWorks, Shell Lubricants, and RIC Electronics.
  • Air, Dust and Mine Ventilation, with Albarrie, Grydale, Polar Mobility, and TLT-Turbo.
  • Tanks, Pumps and Fluid Containment, with AGI Envirotank, Summit Valve, FluoroSeal, and Sulzer.
  • Geospatial, Survey and 3D Capture, with 3DLS, Eagle Mapping, Measur, and Hexagon.
