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.

Commercialization of Micronized Pyrophyllite Products in Targeted Industries

Agreement Number:

1006517

Duration: from Apr 3, 2023 to Mar 31, 2024
Description:

As the only pyrophyllite mine in Canada, the firm has invested heavily in developing a life of mine flowsheet for the production of high purity pyrophyllite feedstock. Based on its previous work and engineered flowsheet, they were able to identify MMC and are now looking to develop the roadmap for successful application, which will require continued investment and focus on trial work, in-house and external lab testing prior to commercial trials, and targeted commercial adoption in various industries.

Agreement:

Commercialization of Micronized Pyrophyllite Products in the Polyolefin, Refractory, Film and Coating Industries

Agreement Number:

989850

Duration: from May 8, 2022 to Mar 31, 2023
Description:

As the only pyrophyllite mine in Canada, the firm has been working to commercialize pyrophyllite products across multiple industry sectors, investing in developing a flowsheet for the production of high purity pyrophyllite feedstock, based on near infrared (NIR) sorting technology. From this, the firm has been able to develop a clear understanding of the correlation between mineralogy, morphology and chemistry. This interlocking set of physical attributes will provide the benchmark for determining success in targeted industrial applications. Successful application will require continued investment in trial work, material characterization, in-house testing, and external lab testing, prior to commercial trials and targeted commercial adoption.
