The Diavik mine rescue team will compete in the 10th Biennial National Regional Mine Rescue Competition in Fernie, BC, thanks to its second-place finish in the recent Workers’ Safety and Compensation Commission’s competition in Yellowknife.
Teams competing in Yellowknife also included Ekati, Snap Lake mines from Northwest Territories, the Meadowbank Mine from Nunavut Territory, and Minto Mine from Yukon Territory.
The rescue team from Ekati, winners of the Yellowknife competition, will naturally be in Fernie too along with 10 other teams from western Canada and the northwest United States.
