|Natural Resources Canada (NRCan)

|Exploring the Use of Technology to Streamline Exploration to Production for Mining

−

|The current approval process for mining projects is complex and inefficient, with the resulting burden having significant negative impact on industry and challenging the delivery of the regulatory regime. This project involves undertaking various activities in order to identify a digital tool that would streamline the approvals process for mining projects, followed by implementation and adoption of the identified tool.
