Grants and Contributions
About this information
In June 2016, as part of the Open Government Action Plan, the Treasury Board of Canada Secretariat (TBS) committed to increasing the transparency and usefulness of grants and contribution data and subsequently launched the Guidelines on the Reporting of Grants and Contributions Awards, effective April 1, 2018.
The rules and principles governing government grants and contributions are outlined in the Treasury Board Policy on Transfer Payments. Transfer payments are transfers of money, goods, services or assets made from an appropriation to individuals, organizations or other levels of government, without the federal government directly receiving goods or services in return, but which may require the recipient to provide a report or other information subsequent to receiving payment. These expenditures are reported in the Public Accounts of Canada. The major types of transfer payments are grants, contributions and \'other transfer payments\'.
Included in this category, but not to be reported under proactive disclosure of awards, are (1) transfers to other levels of government such as Equalization payments as well as Canada Health and Social Transfer payments. (2) Grants and contributions reallocated or otherwise redistributed by the recipient to third parties; and (3) information that would normally be withheld under the Access to Information Act and the Privacy Act.

Development of additional features for mineral identification AI
1001742
Further develop a scalable industry-leading AI accelerated core logging system to improve the pace and consistency of core drill core logging, which represents one of the largest bottlenecks in the mining life cycle with no signs of improving. This project will address major challenges in the industry by improving productivity and consistency of core logging through Machine Learning (ML), a subdomain of Artificial Intelligence (AI).
IRAP funding will allow KORE to accelerate development and ultimately commercialize new products faster. The proposed solution(s) are a direct result of market research and voice of customer studies and are specifically designed to solve customer identified needs and challenges.
