A showcase of mining history

Northern Ontario has an extensive and prosperous narrative within Canada’s mining supply and service industry. Over the last six years, it has further solidified its presence through a partnership of communities from throughout the region to display their strengths in the Northern Ontario Mining Showcase (NOMS) at the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC).

Historic transformation

The foundation of the NOMS is rooted in relationships that originated in the Township of James and Elk Lake, which has since expanded to include additional Northern Ontario communities, organizations and businesses.

What was once a small corner booth within the Ontario Pavilion in 2010, has substantially transformed over the years. From the Steam Whistle Brewery in 2014, featuring 35 companies; to showcasing 110 exhibitors at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre in 2019 and beyond!

The City of Temiskaming Shores is continuing to lead the Northern Ontario Mining Showcase (NOMS) at both PDAC and CIM. The project enables small and medium sized mining supply and service companies from across Northern Ontario to attend the two international trade shows to showcase their products and services to the world. The project continues to receive support from FedNor

The City of Temiskaming Shores would like to thank both MineConnect and Markey Consulting for their years of excellent work with the project as event coordinators, but the City is hiring a Project Coordinator this year to take on the work of event coordination in house. Please reach out to us at info@northernontariomining.com with questions and comments.

Applications for NOMS at PDAC 2027 will open at the end of September.

Thank you for your continued support of the project!
