Biography/Administrative history:

Show detail Hide detail

Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. National Office : Regional organizations representing the mining industry in Nova Scotia, Quebec, Ontario and British Columbia formed independently in the late nineteenth century. The first national level organizational meeting was held on March 4, 1898, when a group of mining engineers and others interested in the industry met in Montreal to consider a draft constitution and bylaws. This group incorporated under the name Canadian Mining Institute on June 13, 1898. Among the Institute's objectives were the promotion of the art and science of mineral and metal production; the encouragement of the industry; and the establishment of a central reference library and headquarters.

By Act of Parliament in 1920 the Canadian Mining Institute changed its name to The Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy. A subsequent Act of Parliament in 1990 changed the Institute's name to the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum.
