The Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) was well attended this year, with 26,926 attendees coming to Toronto from all over the world, for the best business, investment and networking opportunities in the mineral exploration and mining industry. This was a significant improvement over last year, when 23,819 participants visited the largest mining conference on the planet.

After experiencing an online version in 2021 because of COVID-19, and an in-person conference in June last year attracting a modest 17,445 attendees, the Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) was happy to go back to normal again,  scheduling in early March, and gathering a more average figure of 23,819 attendees to Toronto, enjoying beautiful sunny and dry weather, with comfortable temperatures all week, as opposed to freezing -10 to -30C ordeals in the not too distant past.
