SME will have a booth in the National Exhibit area and will spend 2 weeks talking to the scouts about the importance of mining in the products they use on a daily basis as well as sharing the phases of opening a mining operation, from exploration to reclamation, and careers in the mining and minerals industries.
SME staff will be making daily posts from the Jamboree on our Facebook page.
