PDAC reports 50% increase in registration already

arly registration numbers are up by almost 50% from last year for the upcoming Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada’s (PDAC) Convention in Toronto, March 4-7, 2012.

PDAC President Scott Jobin-Bevans says the numbers reflect both the health of the mineral industry and the popularity of the event.

“The convention has really hit its stride in terms of its place in the global mineral industry. Over the years it’s grown into the industry’s premier event. Last year we had over 27,000 participants from 120 different countries; we’re seeing very strong interest again this year, both at home and internationally, which is very exciting,” says Jobin-Bevans.
