Sintela is pleased to announce that we will be participating in CIM CONNECT 2026, one of the mining industry’s leading global conventions, bringing together engineers, operators, and technology providers from around the world. It is based on the theme “Our Mining Moment: Strategic Growth and Sustainability,” where Sintela will bring its advanced Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS) technology in front of people.

Location: Vancouver Convention Centre, Vancouver, BC, Canada

Dates: May 3-6, 2026

Booth: 1043

Today, mining operations are facing more challenges, and there is a need for reliable, real-time insight into ground conditions and critical assets. At CIM CONNECT 2026, Sintela will present how Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing (DFOS) can offer continuous visibility, helping the practitioners understand the subsurface situation and respond even more effectively.

• At the booth, our team will be showcasing the ONYX DFOS, which helps in:
• Continuous monitoring by capturing acoustic, strain, and even temperature changes in real-time.
• Clear and actionable insights that turn a large volume of data into information that teams can actually use.
• Flexible deployment because of its adaptability across a wide range of mining and geotechnical environments.

Sintela’s Involvement: More Than Just an Exhibition

Sintela’s involvement at CIM CONNECT 2026 goes beyond the exhibition. We won’t be just showcasing our technology at the booth but also be a part of a seismic workshop where we will share perspectives on how continuous sensing can change the way of monitoring and understanding subsurface activities.

Seismic Workshop: Developing and Implementing a seismic Risk Management Plan for Underground Mines

Date: Sunday, May 03, 2026

Time: 08:30 AM to 04:30 PM

We will be presenting two technical papers focused on practical challenges in mining:

Tailing Monitoring

Under this paper, we will explain how DFOS technology can offer continuous visibility into tailings storage conditions and support safer operations.

Tailing Paper: Overview of Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing for Tailings Dam Monitoring (28)

Date: Monday, May 04, 2026

Time: 02:25 PM to 02:50 PM

Rock Mass Monitoring Using DFOS

Under this, we will explore how fiber optic sensing can help in detecting the early signs of ground movement that is not captured by traditional systems.

Rockmass Paper: Distributed Fiber Optic Sensing for Real-Time Monitoring in Complex Underground Mines (260)

Date: Monday, May 04, 2026

Time: 02:50 PM to 03:15 PM

This workshop will help you understand how technology is being applied in real-world scenarios and not just in theories.

Engage with Sintela at CIM CONNECT 2026

If you are attending CIM CONNECT 2026 in Vancouver, Sintela invites you to stop by the booth, start a conversation, and gain insights into our new technology. Visitors will get the opportunity to:

• Explore how DFOS can be integrated into existing monitoring technology.
• Discuss site-specific challenges
• See how continuous sensing solutions can be adapted to your site

To arrange a meeting or request a technical discussion, get in touch with us through info@sintela.com.

Sintela looks forward to connecting with the global mining community and contributing to shaping the future of monitoring, safety, and operational intelligence.
