SMJ: How would you like to improve public understanding of the industry?
PS: The SMA motto is 'Mining is GREAT for Saskatchewan.' We have to make the activities and contributions of the mining industry more tangible to the general public. We need to demonstrate the link between increasing exploration and mining activity in the province and an increasingly higher quality of life, and with the benefits that mining activity provides to the province, and the world.
