Join mining professionals for technical presentations, short courses and an exhibition covering mining practice and innovation. This guide helps you decide whether its audience fits your objective and what to confirm before planning a visit.

Who is CIM CONNECT useful for?

Mining engineers, technical specialists, researchers and suppliers attend for professional exchange and operational learning. The event suits people who want to compare methods and discuss the evidence behind a new practice or technology.

What to expect from the programme

CIM CONNECT combines technical sessions, short courses and an expo. The overall convention schedule and the exhibition schedule can differ, so a visit focused on supplier meetings needs its own timetable check.

Tickets, registration and access

A current, edition-specific price comparison is not established in this guide. Use the organizer’s live registration page to check the category available to you, what it includes and its payment terms. Conference, exhibition, short-course and meeting access may be different products.

Before paying, confirm the badge category, the sessions or meetings it covers, and whether any activity needs a separate booking. Keep the registration confirmation and the organizer’s current terms with your travel plan. This directory does not make a ticket-price or admission guarantee.

Venue and travel planning

The Palais des congrès de Montréal is the announced venue. Confirm the entrance and programme locations, particularly when booking short courses or sessions outside the main exhibition schedule.

Choose accommodation after confirming the venue and the first and last activities you plan to attend. Ask the organizer or venue about accessibility and any equipment-demonstration requirements relevant to your visit; no edition-specific access policy is established in this guide.

A practical way to prepare

A mine engineer evaluating a process improvement could shortlist technical presentations, prepare questions about operating conditions and arrange conversations with relevant suppliers. Record which results can reasonably be transferred to the engineer’s own site.

Write down the question each meeting needs to answer and the evidence you will exchange. After the event, record the agreed next action, responsible person and information still required. That turns a useful introduction into a decision you can follow through.

A question before you book

Does the expo run for the full convention?

Do not assume that it does. The convention and expo may have different dates and access times. Use the organizer’s final schedule to check the days relevant to your visit before booking an exhibition-only trip.

Is this the right event for your next step?

Choose CIM CONNECT if its audience and programme can move a specific project, procurement or partnership decision forward. Start with the meetings you need, check the relevant pass and session schedule, and define the follow-up work you want each conversation to produce.

Official sources and review basis

This guide was reviewed on 29 October 2026. Organizer pages support the edition information where retrievable; unverified or conflicting details are identified beside the claim. Practical preparation examples are Bart Mining’s guidance, not promises from an event organizer. Attendance totals and pass prices are omitted where a current, comparable basis has not been established.
