Congratulations to Dr. Shaun Barker of #UBC's MDRU - Mineral Deposit Research Unit and UBC Department of Earth, Ocean & Atmospheric Sciences on his Innovate BC award.
Ignite Awardees Spotlight 🎥 Ideon Technologies + Dr. Shaun Barker of The University of British Columbia were awarded $300,000 for their project tackling the challenges of mining critical minerals by using cosmic-ray muon #tomography to enable safer, more efficient, and sustainable #mineralextraction. “The #Ignite program is really helping us right here in our own backyard in B.C., working with a mine site in the province, and really proving the efficacy of this breakthrough technology to enable us to then deploy that technology on a global scale to the #miningindustry.” – Gary Agnew, CEO + Co-Founder, Ideon Technologies. 👉 Learn more about this year's recipients: https://loom.ly/0GiDLlY #InnovateBC
