According to a recent LinkedIn post from Mast Reforestation, CEO Grant Canary recently appeared on CBC/Radio-Canada’s “What On Earth” to discuss the company’s biomass burial approach to post-wildfire restoration. The post highlights Mast’s MT1 project, where fire-damaged wood has been buried underground in a low-oxygen environment to keep carbon out of the atmosphere for at least 100 years.

The company’s LinkedIn post suggests that monitoring data from above and within the burial chamber indicate the system is performing as designed. It further notes that less than a year after excavation began, Mast has delivered all carbon credits from the MT1 project and plans to return to the site next week to plant new seedlings on the same landscape.
For investors, the content points to Mast actively validating a large-scale carbon removal methodology that can generate carbon credits within relatively short project timelines. Successful performance and full credit delivery from MT1 may strengthen the company’s credibility with buyers of carbon offsets and could support future revenue growth if additional projects follow a similar model.
The post also frames biomass burial as a potential funding solution for increasingly severe wildfire seasons in Canada and the U.S., positioning the approach as complementary to traditional forest management resources. If biomass burial gains wider policy support and adoption as a climate and wildfire recovery tool, Mast could benefit from expanding demand for its services and carbon credits, though the long-term impact will depend on regulatory acceptance, verification standards, and market pricing for removal credits.
