PDAC 2026 Recap

The first quarter’s mining conference circuit is officially over, and we’re reflecting on another legendary PDAC season. 

We returned as a sponsor and exhibitor to this premier mineral exploration and mining convention, organized by the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada, and were once again impressed by the strong event attendance and enthusiasm of mining executives and investors on trends and developments in the industry.

Beyond the convention programming, there was no shortage of adjacent events keeping us busy and connecting us with our peers in the space. Not only did we attend external events, including Red Cloud Financial Services’ Pre-PDAC Mining Showcase, but we hosted two luncheons – PDAC Global Markets Luncheon and The CSE’s Annual PDAC Investor Luncheon – as well as bringing back our fan-favourite networking event, On the Rocks.

Keep reading for a full overview of our PDAC season recap, and be sure to visit our events calendar to see where we’re headed next.

Red Cloud Pre-PDAC Mining Showcase

On our road to this year’s PDAC, we had a fantastic time returning to Red Cloud Financial Services’ Pre-PDAC Mining Showcase as a sponsor. 

Taking place at the historic “King Eddy” in Toronto, this showcase was a great way to kick off PDAC season, with plenty of keynotes, presentations, and networking to set the pace for the Convention. 

As always, we also enjoyed catching up with our peers in the mining and investment communities, as well as CSE listed issuers at the event, including: 

Thank you to Red Cloud Financial Services and PearTree for hosting and having us!

PDAC 2026

As always, we were proud to sponsor and attend the legendary PDAC Convention and to connect with investors, industry leaders, and government representatives from around the world over mineral exploration and mining.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our booth, attended CSE CEO Richard Carleton’s session, “Mines, markets and money: An overview of Canada’s marketplace,” and joined us at our CSE-hosted events.

Beyond our participation, it was also great to see the Exchange well represented by the 30+ CSE listed issuers that exhibited during the convention, including:

We’re grateful to the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada for putting on another excellent show. Until next year!

PDAC Global Markets Luncheon

In addition to the regular PDAC programming, we co-hosted The CSE’s PDAC Global Markets Luncheon with the National Stock Exchange of Australia (NSX), and the event was a big hit!

Event Review

Looking Back on a Successful PDAC 2024

This year’s PDAC promised to be an eventful one – and we’re happy to report it most certainly was. From posh parties to connecting with mining and capital markets leaders from all over the world, the CSE team had an amazing time taking in the full PDAC experience. 

While every PDAC convention offers the unique opportunity to take the pulse of what is going on at the ground level and in the boardrooms throughout this industry, this year, the CSE team noted a lot of conversations about ‘electrification’ on and off the show floor.

This year, however, there was an extra special buzz in the air at PDAC. Not only is 2024 a milestone year because we are celebrating our 20th year as a recognized stock exchange, but we can earnestly say that this was one of the best PDAC experiences yet. 

By the numbers, we had more CSE listed companies exhibiting at the Investors Exchange than ever before; attendance and engagement at our events was at an all-time high, and the continued popularity of our conference-related content reflects our ongoing commitment to showcasing the entrepreneurial spirit that permeates throughout the Exchange. 

Yes, there are certainly headwinds facing segments of the mining industry, particularly as it relates to raising capital. But, judging from the conversations and energy at this year’s show, resilience and perseverance are in abundant supply. 

Thanks to the PDAC convention organizers and to everyone who joined us at this year’s show. We look forward to returning again next year!

Read on to find out more about all of our PDAC highlights, including the new and exciting additions to our event slate, as well as to check out photos from all of our adventures on and off the show floor. 

CSE Welcomes Australian Delegates

During this year’s PDAC convention, we were thrilled to host our first-ever Australian-focused Market Open at the CSE office in Toronto. 

Our friends and colleagues from ‘down-under’ were treated to the highest market opening celebration in Canada and took in the spectacular view of the city from the CSE’s downtown Toronto offices atop First Canadian Place. 

Richard Carleton, CSE CEO, shared important updates on the Exchange’s progress toward membership with the World Federation of Exchanges and reiterated the importance of the mining and exploration sector to both the Canadian and Australian capital markets. 

In addition, representatives from Canaccord Genuity, Citadel Securities, and Iress provided great perspectives on advancements that will specifically strengthen the global positioning of CSE listed mining issuers as they seek capital and liquidity in Australia and beyond.

Thanks again to all who joined for making our event a success!

PDAC Convention

We had a fantastic time engaging in all things mining and exploration at this year’s PDAC convention. As with previous years, the convention was a whirlwind of activity however one of the big highlights for our team was meeting with CSE listed issuers on and off the show floor. 

This year, a record number of CSE listed issuers were on the exhibition show floor at the Investors Exchange. It was great to catch up with members from their respective teams and to help them have the best convention experience possible. Here’s the list of CSE listed companies who exhibited this year:

Additionally, our role as an official media partner enabled us to distribute the Mining Issue of Canadian Securities Exchange Magazine to our many booth visitors and to all convention attendees. If you missed out on snagging a copy at the event, you can read the latest Mining Issue online here.

See you all at next year’s PDAC!

CSE Investor Luncheon

The highly-sought after CSE Investor Luncheon brought together various members of the investment and capital markets communities and an exciting cross-section of mineral exploration companies listed on the CSE for company presentations, a special panel, and networking. 

Rob Cook, the CSE’s Senior Vice President of Market Development, was back to emcee the pitch presentations. CSE listed issuers continue to step up their game every year, with some of the most proficient pitches yet. Thank you to the companies that participated, including:

The second portion of the afternoon was a panel discussion, where attendees enjoyed a very engaging and lively discussion about short selling. 

We’d like to thank Terry Lynch, Founder of Save Canadian Mining, who joined Richard Carleton as a special guest on the panel, “Fact-and-Fiction – Short Selling in the Capital Markets.” 

Thank you to everyone who joined us, with special thanks to our incredible sponsors Computershare, DealMaker, MNP, Grove Corporate Services, Issuer Direct ACCESSWIRE, Marrelli Trust Company Limited, Marrelli Support Services, DSA Corporate Services, Newsfile, Outlier Marketing, QuoteMedia, Independent Trading Group (ITG), and W.D.

Mangia Bevi Festa

Once again, we were pleased to co-host Mangia Bevi Festa, our exclusive PDAC networking event, presented in partnership with MNP and Aird & Berlis!

Mining Events Recap – Post-Q1 2023

It’s been a whirlwind start to 2023. Over the past three months, the CSE team has enjoyed connecting with friends both old and new in mining and from across the capital markets at the many mining events and activities taking place across the country.

From VRIC to PreDACs to PDAC, there was no shortage of opportunities to engage in lively discussion on the latest trends driving activity and interest in the mining and exploration sectors.

Regardless of the event, consistently strong event attendance was an indicator of renewed enthusiasm for the mining sector with a clear interest in battery and precious metals. In particular, our time at PDAC in Toronto as both a media sponsor and exhibitor enabled us to provide a pulse of mining-related developments taking place at the CSE.

Check out our highlights from this year’s signature mining events below, and be sure to visit our events calendar to see where we’re headed next.

Vancouver Resource Investment Conference (VRIC) & Cross-Border Networking Reception

These events featured great lineups of companies delivering quick pitches, and there were vibrant conversations around mining for battery metals, the small cap space, as well as interesting outlooks on the industry for 2023 and beyond.

The event featured a keynote address from Peter Kent, CEO of First Phosphate (CSE:PHOS),  a former Minister of State for the Americas with the department of Foreign Affairs and former Environment Minister of Canada, who provided fascinating insights on the global mining landscape. Following this presentation, CSE-listed mining companies delivered rapid-fire company pitches and were among the strongest slate of companies that have ever presented at this luncheon event!

Upcoming Event: The CSE at PDAC 2015

In just a few weeks, mining and exploration companies, investors and dignitaries from across the globe will brave the Toronto weather for the annual Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) conference, the world’s largest mining and exploration conference.

The PDAC 2015 edition will feature a dizzying number of events packed into the first four days of March.  From soil samples to soirées, there will most certainly be something for everyone.

This year’s PDAC will also be an exciting one for the CSE.  In addition to exhibiting at the Investor’s Exchange, the CSE will also be hosting an investor networking luncheon as well as signing on as a sponsor for the outreach organization Mining Matters.Meet the CSE team at PDAC 2015

Individuals interested in connecting with representatives from the CSE can stop by booth 2542 at the Investor’s Exchange section each day of PDAC 2015.  Along with the CSE, there will be several CSE-listed firms exhibiting including Regal Resources Inc. (RGR), Newlox Gold Ventures Corp. (LUX), Copper Reef Mining Corp. (CZC) and Western Uranium Corporation (WUC).

In addition to exhibiting at the PDAC, the CSE  in partnership with MNP LLP, Newsfile and Peterson & Company LLP, will be hosting a special investor luncheon on Tuesday March 3rd from 11:30am to 1pm.  During the luncheon, attendees will hear from a number of CSE-listed firms and will also have the chance to network with and ask questions to CSE representatives.

Last year’s luncheon was a tremendous success and filled up quickly. As space is limited be sure to register early here.

With a significant portion of their listings coming from across the natural resources sectors, the CSE is keenly aware of the current climate for publicly listed mining and exploration companies. Though there may be headwinds facing the mining industry, the PDAC typically demonstrates the enthusiasm with which those challenges are met.  According to CSE CEO Richard Carleton, “We’re excited to be back at the PDAC. The energy of the conference is great and we look forward to connecting with entrepreneurs who demonstrate, time and again, the ability to overcome the challenges that the mineral exploration sector throws their way.”

Without question, the PDAC 2015 will showcase the great entrepreneurial spirit and resilience that characterizes the mining industry. The fact that they’re willing to brave Toronto in March is a testament to that.
