What is SEDAR+ and why does it matter to mining investors?

SEDAR+ (System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval) is the database where Canadian-listed issuers file regulatory documents with provincial securities regulators. It replaced the legacy SEDAR system in 2023. For mining investors it is the primary source for NI 43-101 technical reports, annual and quarterly financials, material change reports, prospectuses, and news releases.

Why it matters: SEDAR+ is the authoritative, time-stamped record. A drill result or resource estimate quoted in a press release should be traceable to a filing on SEDAR+; the filing timestamp is also what establishes when material information became public. Strikepoint News links its drill and filings data back to the originating SEDAR+ (and SEC EDGAR, for US issuers) documents.

The US equivalent is SEC EDGAR; Australia uses the ASX announcements platform. Cross-listed companies file in each jurisdiction, so the same event can appear on multiple systems with slightly different timing.
