Welcome to Issue 2 of the Ontario Mineral Producer e-newsletter
W
elcome back, readers, to Issue 2 of the Ontario Mineral Producer e-newsletter. We’re so thrilled you have enjoyed the first issue and came back for more. Please note that
while we are sharing articles on our end that we welcome any and all story ideas from you, our readers. This is as much your e-newsletter as it is ours, and we are more than happy to share your news. This issue brings plenty of exciting updates in the Ontario mineral exploration industry. For the first time, the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) 2022 Convention is returning as both an in-person AND online format. In its 90 years of operating, they have never offered a hybrid event, which certainly reflects how we have changed in terms of interacting and gathering. While a lot of people are happy about meeting face-to-face, I
applaud PDAC for considering those who are a little more cautious and prefer to participate from their computer screens. When we think of mineral exploration, we typically think of men in hard hats, but women are definitely making their mark in the industry. Women in Mining Canada (WIMC) has recently announced its 2022 Trailblazer Awards Series winners. Originally established in 2012 with the flagship Trailblazer Award, the initiative aims to recognize women for making an impact in the Canadian mining industry. So far, WIMC has recognized 32 women – but that number is no doubt going to steadily grow. Again, thank you for taking the time to read our e-newsletter. Feel free to send your story ideas and comments to cindy@delcommunications.com. Happy reading!
