The event is hosted by Saskatchewan Mining Association, the Saskatchewan Ministry of Trade and Export Development and the Saskatchewan Industrial and Mining Suppliers Association.

This Forum will continue to be THE event to attend to find out how manufacturers, construction, equipment and service providers can access mining supply opportunities.
