About us
Discover, Develop | Optimize, Operate | Developing Future Leaders | Developing Mining Engineers Coming into its 33rd year, the Canadian Mining Games have proven to be a strong part of the Canadian mining history. The Games have annually provided an opportunity for students across Canada to showcase their mining knowledge, problem-solving and adaptive capabilities through a variety of challenges. Sponsors are able to create and develop individual events and interact directly with students during competitions to evaluate their responses to new and challenging situations. In addition to the friendly competition, both students and industry representatives are given the chance to expand their network through banquets and the career fair.
