Mining in Society - Exhibition May 9-11

MREPBC worked with the Association for Mineral Exploration BC (AME BC) and the local CIM organizing committee to put together an excellent Exploration Pavilion at the Mining in Society Show. A huge thanks to our incredible volunteers! We could not have done it without you. Take a look at some photos from Mining in Society May 9-11.

Bring your students to Mining in Society (MIS), Vancouver - May 10-11!
School groups are specially invited to Mining in Society, a free, open-house mining and mineral education exhibit being held at the new Vancouver Convention Center in May. MIS features pavilions with exhibits and interactive stations to help visitors build their understanding of geology, mineral exploration, the mining process, mineral processing, minerals and technology, mineral uses, and sustainable resource development.

Students will explore the importance of mining in everyday life, participate in the
Amazing Mine Challenge, and discover the many interesting careers in mining. It will be a fun and engaging learning experience, particularly for students who have been learning about mining or geoscience in school.

Conference hosts, the CIM (Canadian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy), are providing free buses for travel from Lower Mainland schools. Download the flier.

Don't miss this! CIM and Mining in Society come to Vancouver only once every 5 years!
