As Managing Director, I am proud to welcome you to the 21st annual CAMESE Compendium of Canadian Mining Suppliers. The Compendium is a reminder of the remarkable breadth and depth of products and services offered by Canadian companies that supply the entire mining spectrum – from early exploration and development, mine design and construction to production, processing, refining, closure and rehabilitation. The Compendium is set up in a format that allows you to easily find a supplier using the subsector index in the front or the alphabetical listings in the back. In addition, the added value of a concise descriptive supplier profile with key contact information gives you a quick understanding of whether a supplier will fit your needs. For example, if you are interested in Mineral Processing Equipment & Supplies, you will find 20 firms under that heading. In terms of the mining industry, we have been in a prolonged bottom of the commodity or business cycle over the past few years and it has made it clear to many that exploration and mining companies cannot proceed to do business as usual. This has created an opportunity for companies to look at doing things differently and better; that is to say, to be more innovative. We are seeing this change as mining companies are focusing on electrification of underground mines and implementation of autonomous vehicles, for example. As the term innovation has been getting a lot of attention lately, for clarity here, when we say “innovative,” it is implied that a product or service can be implemented in a commercially viable way. I state this point because if a product or process that is innovative cannot yet be implemented commercially, it is simply research and development. Also, when it comes to innovation as defined here, this is where Canadian mining suppliers of products and services shine – it is in their DNA. I encourage you to explore our Compendium and seek out our suppliers so they can work with you to provide the innovative solutions your business requires to be competitive in the current market. Please contact our members directly for further information on their products and services or visit our website at www.camese.org to learn more. You can also contact any one of our CAMESE staff members, who will always be pleased to assist you in finding the right business partners to fulfil your needs.

Internationally, Canada is one of the leading mining countries and one of the largest producers of minerals and metals. The industry accounted for 18.2% of the value of Canadian goods exports in 2014, selling a diversified array of minerals abroad. Exports of aluminum, copper, gold, iron and steel, iron ore, nickel, silver, uranium, zinc, diamonds, potash and coal ranged from $500 million to $11.9 billion, respectively. ~ Taken from: Facts & Figures 2015, The Mining Association of Canada

Despite challenges, the view is the Canadian mining sector’s economic prospects remain strong over the medium to longer term. Given long-term growth projections for China, India and other emerging countries, and assuming a positive investment environment, minerals and metals demand is likely to increase as consumption patterns of middle classes of developing economies continue to more closely resemble those of industrialized countries. ~ Taken from: Facts & Figures 2015, The Mining Association of Canada

Canada remained the world’s top destination for nonferrous exploration spending in 2014, but experienced a 22% decrease in allocations year-over-year. This marks the third consecutive year that Canada’s share of international exploration investment has fallen, which is indicative of the fierce competition for global mineral investment, and the financing challenges junior companies are facing. Canadian exploration spending is focused in many regions, and more than 800 Canadian companies are exploring in over 100 countries. ~ Taken from: Facts & Figures 2015, The Mining Association of Canada

To better understand the transportation and related costs required to overcome Canada’s vast geography, MAC undertook a study that compared the costs of operating in a remote and northern region to a comparable mine in a centrally located area. The study determined that for base and precious metals, the premium associated with developing and operating a remote and northern mine ranges from 2 to 2.5 times the cost compared to that of a similar mine in a southern region. In addition, MAC found that 70% of this cost increase is directly related to infrastructure investment. ~ Taken from: Facts & Figures 2015, The Mining Association of Canada

According to recent MAC research, there is over $140 billion in potential mineral project investments over the next decade in Canada, depending on market realities. This would translate into multiple billions worth of investments in most of Canada’s provinces and territories, namely British Columbia, Alberta, Saskatchewan, Ontario, Quebec, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nunavut and the Northwest Territories. These projects may face obstacles and delays, but the figure does suggest the scale of mining-related jobs, supply contracts and tax revenues if these projects come to production.

To better understand the transportation and related costs required to overcome Canada’s vast geography, MAC undertook a study that compared the costs of operating in a remote and northern region to a comparable mine in a centrally located area. The study determined that for base and precious metals, the premium associated with developing and operating a remote and northern mine ranges from 2 to 2.5 times the cost compared to that of a similar mine in a southern region. In addition, MAC found that 70% of this cost increase is directly related to infrastructure investment. ~ Taken from: Facts & Figures 2015, The Mining Association of Canada

When it comes to payments to governments, noteworthy, from a payment disclosure standpoint, is the Canadian government’s resource revenue transparency legislation, which came into force in July 2015.

Mineral and metal prices are affected daily by global economic events. Prices for mined products are driven largely by the strength and performance of major economies. China, in particular, buys approximately 45% of the world’s base metals, up from just 5% in the 1980s. Additionally, as a means of controlling exports of key commodities, China stockpiles iron ore, aluminum, copper, nickel, tin, zinc and oil when prices are low, making it difficult for analysts to forecast prices for minerals. ~ Taken from: Facts & Figures 2015, The Mining Association of Canada

Canada has the third-largest oil reserves in the world, and 97% (168 billion barrels) of Canada’s reserves (173 billion barrels) are in the oil sands. The majority (81%) of world oil reserves are owned or controlled by national governments. Only 20% of total world oil reserves are accessible for private sector investment, 56% of which are found in Canada’s oil sands. Given this ratio, foreign direct investment in this sector has been increasing, and foreign interest is anticipated to continue in the coming years. ~ Taken from: Facts & Figures 2015, The Mining Association of Canada
