Funding program: Strategic Innovation Fund Stream 5 (SIF-5)Ministry: Innovation, Science and Industry (ISI)Minister: Honorable Navdeep Bains
Proposed SIF-5 Funded Program DetailsProgram Name: Mining Innovation Commercialization Accelerator (MICA)Lead Applicant: Centre for Excellence in Mining Innovation (CEMI)Program Duration: 5 years Program Value: $120M ($80M private and public + in-kind)Funding Request: $40MTechnology Readiness Level: Late-stage projects (TRL6-8)Scope: Connect Regional Mining Clusters to Cross-Sector Innovation Centres
to create a National Mining Innovation Ecosystem MICA Vision: Use the Canadian advantage of SME-based innovations to create a national mining technology ecosystem and lead the transition to a low-carbon future.
MICA Mission: - Build a national ecosystem as a network of collaborative regional clusters- Create regional networks to rapidly increase domestic and export sales- Scale-up Canadian SMEs to participate in global mining supply chains- Accelerate the number and scale of home-grown Canadian mining SMEs- Commercialize new, late-stage, high-impact mining technologies
MICA: Technical Themes1. Increase Mine Productive Capacity, at Lower Cost.2. Reduce Energy Consumption and GHG Emissions. 3. Mitigate environmental risk and long-term liabilities.4. Implement Smart, Autonomous Mining Systems.

Mining Innovation has to capitalize on the knowledge and investment in innovation organizations in every sector of the economy.
A low-carbon economy needs more metals and minerals than before.
Mining needs Clean Technology and Clean Technology needs Mining.
Mining is a complex, multidisciplinary, global activity.
Mining includes: geology and geophysics, power and transportation, hydrology and thermodynamics, rock and soil engineering, communications and automation, socio-environmental and health sciences, law and economics.

Government of Canada Objectives1. Increasing economic activity in Canada2. Increasing number of jobs in Canada3. Increase made-in-Canada SME solutions 4. Expand export capacity and sales
Post-Covid economic recovery needs accelerated innovation and commercialization.

STRATEGIC INNOVATION FUND STREAM-5Support large-scale national innovation ecosystems through high-impact collaborations across Canada
Foster collaboration between multiple organizations including SMEs incubators/accelerators academic and research institutions and large corporations in order to accelerate commercialization in areas with demonstrated Canadian advantage
Build upon existing regional or national networks and have a high impact approach to technology development, commercialization, business development, scale up and market growth. Target sector should have both domestic growth and export potential.
SIF-5 program network funding minimum $10M and maximum $50M
1. To build the network national network SIF requires Key Partners from across the country(regional clusters and supporting organizations collaborating to form a national ecosystem)
WHAT MAKES FOR A QUALIFYING MICA PROJECT---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Is it made in CanadaIs it TRL level (6-8) Can it be completed within 4.5 years?Is the project IP Secured or pending?Has matching funding been identified?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Is the project addressing an industry validated challenge/problem?Has the project identified the required partners and end-users?Has a technical validation been conducted? Has a business case been conducted?Does the project fit within one of MICA’s technical themes?Does it result in a safer work environment?Has a risk of adoption analysis been conducted?Does the project have potential for adoption by more than one end user?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Will jobs be created/retained?Will the project result in a new company or a spinoff?Does it have other applications in other industries/sectors?Will further IP be developed (patents applied for)?Does it result in export to global markets?Does the project have a path to market?Does it improve social license to operate (ESG)?Will it consider equity and diversity?---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS• If MICA is a $40M ask from SIF-5, how does it become at $120M Network?
Matching contributions are required to secure the leveraged funding
• Does a MICA project require matching funds to have been identified?YES, SIF-5 requires cash commitments to match government funds
• Can mining companies/plant operators in Canada participate?YES, MICA is mineral and metal mining agnostic
• Can a mining/plant operator submit a project for MICA funding?YES
• Can a consortium of companies submit a project into MICA?YES, a lead applicant will be required
• Can a consortium of companies submit challenges into MICA?YES, a lead applicant will be required
• How does MICA work with the Canadian mining innovation ecosystem?MICA is the SIF-5 initiative to create a national mining innovation network, inclusive of all stakeholders.
• How do mining companies/plant operators in Canada demonstrate support for the MICA application?They provide a Letter of Intent (LOI) based on the provided template
• Will MICA fund fundamental research projects (TRL 1-4)?NO, TRL 1-4 projects cannot normally be commercialized within 5-years
• Will the Network make matches between challenges identified and solution providers?YES, but MICA would normally expect target end users to have been identified.
• Will the MICA team provide one-on-one meetings to organizations for further clarity?YES, contact us via [email protected]
