Can you believe it's that time of year again? The annual mayhem and wonder that is the Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada’s (PDAC) annual convention is around the corner from March 3rd to March 6th in Toronto. This year's SVS participants include
Don Richardson, John Glover, Laura Taylor, Meaghan Langille, Erin Stapleton, and Scott Mackay. We're excited to see many of you there - you are definitely our favourite part of PDAC.
If we don't meet you on the floor, we hope to see you on Tuesday afternoon at the Aboriginal Program, when SVS co-hosts a panel titled, It's Complicated: Company-Community Dynamics in IBA Negotiations and Implementation. More on that soon.
The Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) is the leading voice of the mineral exploration and development community. With over 8,000 members around the world, the PDAC’s mission is to promote a globally responsible, vibrant and sustainable minerals industry. As the trusted representative of the sector, PDAC encourages best practices in technical, operational, environmental, safety and social performance.
PDAC’s International Convention is the world’s leading convention for people, companies and organizations in, or connected with, mining. Over 900 exhibitors and 22,000 attendees from 125 countries will convene, exchange knowledge regarding a myriad of subjects related to mineral exploration and mining operations around the world. We’ll be actively participating in the Aboriginal Affairs and Corporate Social Responsibility programs.
