Canada stands as one of the world’s premier mining nations, a reputation built on a vast resource base and a commitment to innovation. With operations spanning over 200 mines and producing more than 60 minerals, the sector is a critical engine for the national economy and a vital global supplier.
In 2023, the minerals and metals sector directly contributed $117 billion to Canada's GDP. When combined with the mining services and equipment sub-sector, the total economic footprint swelled to $159 billion, supporting 711,000 jobs. Canada is a production giant. It leads the world in potash and ranks in the top five for gold, diamonds, and platinum group metals.

Canada represents the gold standard for modern mining, offering a jurisdiction where vast geological potential meets political stability and world-class innovation. As the global energy transition accelerates, the world needs more than just minerals; it needs a reliable, responsible, and forward-thinking partner. With a $117 billion project pipeline and a dedicated ecosystem supporting every stage of development, Canada is ready to deliver. We invite the global community at FMF to partner with us, leveraging our resources and expertise to power a sustainable and prosperous future.
