Mining document sharing is broken
Between geological surveys, environmental assessments, and permit filings, mining teams share sensitive technical data across too many insecure tools. One leak can compromise an entire project.
Exploration data leaks
Geological surveys, core sample reports, and proprietary resource estimates shared via email or generic cloud drives are easy targets for competitors and unauthorized copying.
Multi-jurisdiction permits
Permit applications across different jurisdictions require controlled access for regulators, environmental agencies, and indigenous community stakeholders.
Environmental review complexity
Environmental impact assessments need multi-party review with complete audit trails. Generic tools cannot prove who reviewed which sections and when.
Massive M&A document sets
Due diligence for mining assets involves thousands of technical documents — NI 43-101 reports, PEA/PFS studies, geological maps, and assay certificates scattered across systems.
Built for how mining teams actually work
Peony gives you enterprise-grade security, AI-powered document intelligence, and complete audit trails — all at a fraction of legacy VDR pricing.
Watermarks, screenshot protection, and NDA gates
Your geological surveys and resource estimates are worth millions. Peony blocks screenshots, stamps every page with dynamic watermarks, and requires NDA signatures before JV partners can view proprietary exploration data.
Screenshot protection
Block screen captures of geological maps, core sample reports, and proprietary resource estimates. Prevent unauthorized duplication of your most valuable exploration assets.
Dynamic watermarks
Every page stamped with the viewer's identity and timestamp. If an NI 43-101 report or assay certificate leaks, you know exactly who shared it and when.
NDA-gated access
Require potential JV partners and mining investors to sign an NDA before viewing exploration data or PEA/PFS studies. Fully integrated e-signatures included.
Complete audit trails for every permit and review
Track every view, download, and signature with timestamped logs. Page-by-page analytics show exactly which sections of your environmental impact assessments and water use permits reviewers focused on.
Page-by-page tracking
See which pages of your environmental impact assessments or NI 43-101 technical reports JV partners and regulators spent the most time on. Understand what matters to them.
Compliance-ready logs
Exportable audit trails with timestamps, IP addresses, and device details. Meet regulatory requirements for permit reviews and environmental compliance across jurisdictions.
2FA for sensitive data
Add two-factor authentication for access to mineral rights documents, mine closure plans, and sensitive financial models. Control who sees what across every jurisdiction.
Chat with your geological reports and technical files
Stop digging through hundreds of PDFs. Ask questions across your entire document library and get instant, sourced answers from your geological reports, environmental assessments, and permit applications.
Chat with technical files
Ask questions across NI 43-101 reports, PEA/PFS studies, and environmental assessments. AI retrieves answers with exact source references from your geological data.
Natural language search

Frequently asked questions
What documents belong in a mining data room?
A mining data room typically includes NI 43-101 technical reports, PEA/PFS studies, geological surveys, core sample assay certificates, environmental impact assessments, water use permits, mine closure plans, mineral rights agreements, and JV term sheets. Peony lets you organize all of these with granular permissions so JV partners, regulators, and investors each see only the documents they need.
How do I protect geological surveys and exploration data from leaking?
Geological surveys and proprietary resource estimates are worth millions and are prime targets for competitors. Peony blocks screenshots of exploration data, stamps every page with dynamic watermarks showing the viewer's identity and timestamp, and requires NDA signatures via integrated e-signatures before JV partners can access any documents. All data is protected with AES-256 encryption at rest and TLS 1.3 in transit on Peony's SOC 2 Type II compliant infrastructure.
What is NI 43-101 and why does it matter for data rooms?
NI 43-101 is the Canadian securities regulation governing disclosure of mineral project information. It requires technical reports prepared by a Qualified Person with strict data verification standards. Peony's audit trails track every view, download, and signature on NI 43-101 reports, giving you compliance-ready logs that prove exactly who accessed your technical disclosures and when.
How does AI help with mining due diligence?
Mining M&A involves thousands of technical documents — NI 43-101 reports, PEA/PFS studies, geological maps, and assay certificates. Peony's AI-powered document chat lets investors ask natural language questions across the entire data room and get sourced answers with exact page references. Peony's Smart Q&A adds a structured 4-step workflow where counterparties submit questions, AI drafts answers from your documents, your team reviews, and approved responses are published — so you control exactly what information goes out.
Can a data room handle environmental review and permit compliance?
Yes. Environmental impact assessments require multi-party review with complete audit trails proving who reviewed which sections. Peony provides page-by-page analytics showing exactly which pages regulators and environmental agencies focused on, with exportable timestamped logs for compliance across jurisdictions.
How much does a mining data room cost?
Legacy VDRs like Ideals charge thousands per month and take weeks to deploy for mining transactions. Peony offers a free plan ($0) with 2 GB of storage, scales to Pro at $20 per admin per month (200 GB) and Business at $40 per admin per month (1 TB). Peony has no per-viewer, per-page, or per-link limits, so costs stay predictable even when multiple JV partners access the same data room.
How do I manage access for multiple JV partners reviewing the same assets?
Peony supports granular folder-level and document-level permissions. You can give one JV partner access to geological data for a specific tenement, another partner access to environmental assessments only, and investors full access to financial models — all from one data room with separate audit trails per viewer.
What security features prevent unauthorized copying of assay data?
Peony combines screenshot protection, dynamic watermarks (viewer identity plus timestamp on every page), NDA-gated access with integrated e-signatures, two-factor authentication, link expiry, and instant access revocation. If an assay certificate or resource estimate leaks, watermarks trace it back to the exact viewer.
