Established in 1932, the convention has grown in size and stature, and is now recognized as one of the biggest and brightest mining events in the world. Since its inception, PDAC has expanded to the point where it is now able to inject close to C$57 million into the local economy on an annual basis.

Taking place against Toronto’s hustle and bustle backdrop, the convention happens at the beginning of March every year, and is a must-attend event for anyone involved in or interested in the minerals industry.

During its four day run, companies, investors, stakeholders and mining media congregate at Metro Toronto Convention Center and partake in an event that typically includes thousands of attendees from over 100 countries.

The convention has evolved over its decades-long run, but continues to focus on the precious metals, base metals, battery metals and energy sectors, with market watchers providing their insight through panels and presentations. PDAC’s various programs, which include sustainability, indigenous and student offerings, are key components as well.

Of course, PDAC is also known for its vast networking opportunities, and offers a chance for investors to connect and speak with companies of all sizes.
