Dear Friends,

Mining Matters is a charitable organization that seeks to educate youth and the public about the importance of rocks, minerals, metals, mining and the role they play in each of our lives through workshops and public outreach events.

Every March, we participate in the PDAC Convention – the world’s premier mineral exploration and mining event – during which we hold a silent auction to raise funds for our programs. As such, we are looking for donations to be used as prizes. The Convention and auction will take place March 7 – 10, 2021 as a virtual event.

During these unprecedented times, we realize the importance of mineral resources more than ever as they are used in diagnostic COVID-19 test kits, hospital devices and fabrics, and electronic devices that keep us connected. We hope you will help us continue our mission to educate young people about these vital earth materials.

Should you have any questions or require more information regarding this request, I can be reached at shahn@miningmatters.ca. All donations can be emailed to myself or mailed to the following address:
