For the green future, mining matters — batteries, solar panels, and electric vehicles all rely on the materials that are extracted from the earth. Sustainable mining practices are crucial for ensuring a brighter tomorrow, and there’s no better place to learn about that than the annual award-winning PDAC Convention in Toronto, Canada.
It’s the world’s Premier Mineral Exploration & Mining Convention, which brings together up to 30,000 attendees from over 130+ countries for its educational programming, networking events, business opportunities and fun. Since it began in 1932, the convention has grown in size, stature and influence. Today, it is the event of choice for the world’s mineral industry, hosting more than 1,100 exhibitors and 700 speakers.
