The prospectors and Developers Association of Canada (pDAC) represents the interests of the Canadian mineral exploration and development industry. The association was established in 1932; today, it has more than 1,200 corporate members, and 8,992 individual members. The PDAC’s mission is to protect and promote the interests of the Canadian mineral exploration sector and to ensure a robust mining industry in Canada. The PDAC encourages the highest standards of technical, environmental, safety and social practices in Canada and internationally. Services provided by the PDAC fall under the main categories of advocacy, information, leading practices, and networking. The majority of the association’s activities can be grouped under these four headings.

Mining Matters brings the wonder of Canada’s geology and mineral resources to students, educators and industry. We provide current information about rocks, minerals, metals, and mining and offer exceptional educational resources that meet provincial Earth science and geography curriculum expectations.

Mining Matters engages students and the public with hands on learning activities at various special events promoting the key message “mining makes it happen.”

Mining Matters partners with industry, government and educators to provide relevant information and educational resources to encourage Earth sciences as a career choice for students.

The Snap Lake Mine located in the Northwest Territories (NWT) is Canada’s first fully underground diamond mine and De Beers’ first mine outside of southern Africa.

Snap Lake is the only diamond mine in Canada’s NWT that has certified its environmental management systems to ISO 14001 standards before operations had started.

The Victor Mine, located near Attawapiskat First Nation in northern Ontario, will be Ontario’s first diamond mine. Victor is one of 18 kimberlite pipes discovered on the property, 16 of which are diamondiferous. The Victor kimberlite has a surface area of 15 hectares and consists of two pipes that coalesce at the surface: Victor Main and Victor Southwest. Exploration continues on other kimberlites within the Attawapiskat cluster.

Dan, better known as “Yukon Dan”, is a professional gold panner who brings his hands-on presentation to schools. Dan will follow the Prescribed Learning Outcomes that teachers focus on with their students. This workshop takes place in your own classroom where the students rotate to three different stations;

they will pan for real gold, separate minerals with a magnet of fool’s gold and then do a word search about mining terminology. Dan is more than happy to work within the teacher’s curriculum to tailor his extremely interesting workshop to that class. The historical knowledge the students receive is overwhelming, and the atmosphere in the presentation room will be buzzing with Gold Fever. Whether you are teaching about our Canadian history, social studies, rocks and minerals, gold rushes or Earth & Science, give Yukon Dan a call.

What is Mineral Engineering?

Can you imagine a world without steel, concrete and glass to construct buildings; without electricity, plumbing and modern appliances such as computers and phones; without planes, trains and automobiles; and without the many products we use daily, such as canned goods, cooking utensils, toothpaste and soap? That is a world without Mineral Engineering.

The roles enjoyed by Mineral Engineers are many and varied: from initial planning of mines and quarries, through the engineering management of extraction operations that range from small and simple to huge and exceptionally complex; to the design and operation of ore and industrial mineral processing plants.

As every aspect of Mineral Engineering requires substantial financial backing, another — equally important — branch of the discipline involves the financing of operations and the trading of products. Mineral Engineers are employed by consultants, mining companies, financial institutions and government agencies, and find themselves working in major cities, small towns and isolated areas in every country of the world. Without doubt, Mineral Engineering is a hugely varied, challenging and exciting discipline, with a niche for every engineering interest.
