Announced today, DIGITAL’s Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the CEMI | Centre for Excellence in Mining Innovation furthers our joint commitments to promoting innovation, collaboration and global opportunities for the Canadian mining sector and Canadian mining technologies. Since 2018, DIGITAL has built an over $95M mining portfolio that has produced world-first technologies and tremendous scaling for Canadian mining tech companies. Continuing to support innovation and collaboration within Canada’s mining sector is crucial to realizing a future that maximizes the competitiveness, environmental sustainability and profitability of our resource industries. Today, at the #BCNRF2025, our CEO Sue Paish moderated a panel spotlighting the Mining Microbiome Analytics Platform (M-MAP). An early project within DIGITAL’s mining portfolio, the original M-MAP collaboration brought Canadian companies and organizations such as CEMI, Teck Resources Limited, BGC Engineering Inc., Koonkie Canada, Rio Tinto, The University of British Columbia, Genome BC, Allonnia and Microsoft together for the largest investment in planned natural resource genomic sequencing in the history of the sector. The project extracted DNA from thousands of mining site samples to identify naturally occurring and synthetic microbes that can replace chemicals conventionally used in mining extraction and remediation. The resulting new commercial M-MAP company dramatically accelerates the processing and analysis of genetic data, reducing time required from months to days or hours, and thus transforming resource extraction and mine site remediation. This latest MOU with CEMI will continue supporting collaboration and growth for the Canadian mining sector and Canadian mining technology.

Le protocole d'entente (MOU) signé entre DIGITAL et le CEMI | Centre for Excellence in Mining Innovation renforce nos engagements communs en faveur de l'innovation, de la collaboration et des opportunités mondiales pour le secteur minier canadien et les technologies minières canadiennes. Depuis 2018, DIGITAL a constitué un portefeuille minier de plus de 95 millions de dollars, générant des technologies inédites à l'échelle mondiale et une croissance significative pour les entreprises canadiennes de technologies minières. Continuer à soutenir l'innovation et la collaboration au sein du secteur minier canadien est essentiel pour bâtir un avenir qui maximise la compétitivité, la durabilité environnementale et la rentabilité de nos industries de ressources. Aujourd'hui, au #BCNRF2025, notre PDG, Sue Paish, a animé un panel mettant en lumière la plateforme Mining Microbiome Analytics Platform (M-MAP). Projet précurseur du portefeuille minier de DIGITAL, la collaboration initiale autour de M-MAP a rassemblé des entreprises et organisations canadiennes telles que CEMI, Teck Resources Limited, BGC Engineering Inc., Koonkie Canada, Rio Tinto, l’Université de la Colombie-Britannique, Genome BC, Allonnia et Microsoft, dans le cadre du plus important investissement de séquençage génomique des ressources naturelles jamais réalisé dans le secteur. Ce projet a permis d'extraire l’ADN de milliers d'échantillons provenant de sites miniers pour identifier des microbes naturels et synthétiques pouvant remplacer les produits chimiques traditionnellement utilisés dans l'extraction et la réhabilitation minières. La nouvelle entreprise commerciale M-MAP, issue de ce projet, accélère considérablement le traitement et l'analyse des données génétiques, réduisant les délais de plusieurs mois à quelques jours ou heures, transformant ainsi l'extraction des ressources et la réhabilitation des sites miniers. Ce dernier MOU avec le CEMI continuera de favoriser la collaboration et la croissance dans le secteur minier canadien et les technologies minières canadiennes.
