This reception was a part of the BC Mining Week held at the Pan Pacific. Mining is still very much a male dominated industry but more and more women are successfully fulfilling roles, from administrative to executive to geologist, within the mining sector. The Women in Mining Association's main mission is to promote and recognize women's roles and contributions as well as provide networking and education opportunities to the women engaged in the sector.
This annual cocktail reception is an exciting and fun opportunity for up to 400 women and men to celebrate women's participation in the sector.
