The PDAC Convention – The World’s Premier Mining Event
The Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) Annual Convention, held in Toronto, is recognized as the world’s largest mining industry event. Every year, it brings together exploration and mining companies, equipment suppliers, technology innovators, investors, and government representatives from more than 130 countries. PDAC 2025 continued this tradition, serving as the ultimate platform for networking, innovation sharing, and business development in the mineral exploration and mining sector. Major global players in mining, drilling, geotechnical services, mineral processing, and environmental technology were present, making PDAC a hub for advancing sustainable mining practices and technological breakthroughs.
Why Stone Peak Technologies Participated
At Stone Peak Technologies, we specialize in premium zirconia grinding media, an essential material for mineral processing and advanced grinding applications. Our participation in PDAC 2025 reflects our commitment to supporting the mining industry’s drive for higher efficiency and quality in mineral processing.
Where We Fit in the Value Chain
Ultra-fine grinding is critical for liberating valuable elements from complex ores and preparing materials for high-tech applications. Minerals such as:
Lithium, cobalt, and nickel for EV battery cathode and anode materials
Rare earth elements for electronics and green technologies
Gold, silver, and platinum group metals in precious metals refiningrequire controlled, contamination-free grinding to achieve particle sizes in the micron and sub-micron range. This is where yttria-stabilized zirconia beads outperform traditional grinding media—they offer extreme wear resistance, high density, and zero contamination, ensuring consistent particle size distribution and reducing operating costs.
Our Mission at PDAC 2025
By engaging with exploration companies, metallurgical specialists, and mineral processing engineers at PDAC, we aimed to showcase the advantages of advanced grinding media in achieving sustainable and high-precision mineral processing. Our goal is to establish partnerships that facilitate the industry's transition toward cleaner, more efficient, and resource-optimized operations.
