May is Mining Month in BC! This year's Mining Month theme, 'Critical Minerals – Seizing the Moment,' underscores the urgency of capitalizing on our province's critical minerals potential to foster high-quality employment, drive economic reconciliation, and bolster our efforts towards climate action. Thank you to the Mining Association of BC and the Mining Suppliers Association of B.C. (MSABC) for your coordination on a successful Mining Day at the Legislature, where these important topics were discussed. Sean Magee #miningmonthinbc #criticalminerals
⛏️ Happy BC Mining Month! Members of Mining Association of BC, AME - Association for Mineral Exploration and Mining Suppliers Association of B.C. (MSABC) began Mining Month on April 29 with a visit to BC’s legislature in Victoria. During Mining Day at the Legislature, 37 representatives of BC’s mining community met with members of the legislative assembly from all parties to talk about the importance of mining to the people and prosperity of British Columbia. It was a great pleasure to meet government officials including David Eby, Josie Osborne, Kevin Falcon and John Rustad to convey the message that our province’s critical minerals offer British Columbians a generational opportunity. This year’s Mining Month theme ‘Critical Minerals – The Time Is Now’ emphasizes that we must act now to seize our province’s critical minerals opportunity to create good high-paying jobs, advance economic reconciliation and contribute to climate action. Throughout May, MABC will share insights on our social channels about BC's critical minerals industry – follow along!
