BMI is the team with a 10 year head start and the foundation to fast-track and accelerate critical and strategic mineral projects.

Since 2014, BMI Group has been transforming strategic industrial sites into multimodal hubs, laying the foundation to connect Northern resources to Southern manufacturing centers and global markets.
Northern Ontario
Port of Red Rock
Building the northern-most port and multimodal processing facility on the Great Lakes at Red Rock, ON. As the closest port to production, Red Rock was selected by Rock Tech Lithium in 2024 as the location for their European-engineered lithium converter.
Southern Ontario
Niagara Ports
Development of the Bioveld Niagara Multimodal enterprise park in the heart of Niagara’s EV development corridor, attracting $2B+ in investment. A HOPA (Hamilton Oshawa Port Authority) partnership project just 30 minutes from the United States Border and 45 minutes from major Canadian highways.
Quebec
Norderra Multimodal
Re-Futuring one of Quebec’s largest paper mills in the heart of North America's graphite region into a Multimodal Industrial Hub in partnership with the Port of Baie-Comeau. The site is one of two potential locations for Northern Graphite's Battery Anode Material Facility.
Concrete Achievements and a Bold Vision
A Major Milestone in 2024:
BMI Group formed a multi-sector coalition to support the establishment of Asahi Kasei’s $1.8 billion lithium-ion battery separator megafactory in Port Colborne, reinforcing the strategic importance of the north-south corridor.
We reimagine, repurpose, and revitalize legacy real estate and industrial infrastructure.
Using our proprietary “Ready-State and Re-Future” model, BMI transforms infrastructure-rich but underutilized sites into high-impact, future-focused developments.
As Canada’s largest transformer of idled paper mills, BMI offers a unique platform to advance North American collaboration and accelerate sustainable critical minerals supply chains.
Through partnerships with Rock Tech Lithium and Northern Graphite, we’re helping build out downstream processing and logistics that align with U.S. priorities under the Inflation Reduction Act and the broader push toward energy transition.
