Launched in 2017, the #DisruptMining challenge spurs collaboration
between innovators working with exponential technologies in any sector to disrupt mining and compete for the opportunity to showcase
their ideas in front of a live audience of over one thousand industry leaders and a "shark-tank" style panel of industry
executives. The disruptor(s) will have the opportunity to negotiate up to C$1 million in investment for a proof of concept at one
of Goldcorp's mines or direct investment in the winning technologies.1
"Goldcorp is one of the world's largest and most innovative
gold mining companies. The industry has started to embrace the need for step-change innovation to stay competitive and deliver
greater value but we all need to accelerate the pace of innovation to provide the raw materials that fuel our rapidly changing
global economy," said Todd White, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at Goldcorp and board member of the
Canadian Mining Innovation Council. "We must keep pushing boundaries, thinking differently and we believe faster progress
is only possible through cross-sector collaboration. We are challenging every player in the mining industry and beyond to embrace
innovation by adopting and integrating disruptive technologies into projects and operations here in Canada and around the world."
Last year at the #DisruptMining Challenge, finalist KORE Geosystems
earned a coveted seat at the table with Goldcorp to negotiate a C$1 million investment during the "Shark-Tank" style
live finale. "The #DisruptMining challenge opened doors to hundreds of potential investors and customers," said Vince
Gerrie, President of KORE Geosystems. "Goldcorp's C$1 million investment in KORE Geosystems has accelerated our technology
development. We are very excited to launch our pilot program in 2018." KORE delivers critical decision-making technology
by applying artificial intelligence to geoscience data sources allowing confident, data driven decisions in real time.
