Day two of this year’sProspectors & Developers Association of Canada(PDAC) convention had the Investing News Network (INN) keeping busy and engaging with companies, attending events and of course interviewing industry experts.

The four-day event is the largest Canadian mining conference of the year, and is a key meeting place for mining companies, as well as potential and current investors.

The INN editorial team has been busy covering events and conducting interviews with analysts and company executives. If you were unable to make it to the convention or just want a recap of what happened, continue on for an overview of the day.

Monday (March 4) started off bright and early for the INN team, with a breakfast seminar that discussed small modular nuclear reactors.
