with an organization committed to furthering and supporting the mineral exploration and development<br />
industry worldwide and the people and companies working in it. <strong>PDAC</strong>’s strength and credibility<br />

of leading practice and the sharing of knowledge. Your membership fee is used to support the<br />
following programs:<br />
Convention, Trade Show & Investors Exchange<br />
The world’s leading Convention for people, companies, and organizations in,<br />
or connected with, mineral exploration. <strong>PDAC</strong> Convention has grown in size,<br />

Advocacy<br />
<strong>PDAC</strong> takes the interests and concerns of the mineral exploration industry<br />
to governments, international institutions, and communities of interest,<br />

Association’s membership and Convention revenues are allocated to our<br />
advocacy work.<br />
Our principal advocacy areas include aboriginal affairs • finance<br />
and taxation • geosciences • human resources/student affairs •<br />
international issues • land access and mining regulations •<br />
securities regulations.<br />
Corporate Social Responsibility<br />
e3 Plus: A framework for responsible exploration, developed by the<br />

Provides balanced information about the industry to this country’s<br />
future policy and decision makers and helps to meet the industry’s<br />

the interests of the industry and works with associations across Canada and<br />
the world on initiatives and programs to this end.<br />
Establishes a network of support for the industry and creates strength<br />
in numbers. Modern day exploration is carried out in isolated areas<br />
but successful exploration is no longer an isolated activity.<br />
