TEMISKAMING SHORES, ONTARIO--(Marketwired - Feb. 24, 2015) - The Honourable Greg Rickford, Canada's Minister of Natural Resources and Minister for the Federal Economic Development Initiative for Northern Ontario (FedNor), announced today the roster of more than 55 businesses and organizations from across Northern Ontario that will take part in the Northern Ontario Mining Showcase at the 2015 Prospectors and Developers Association of Canada's (PDAC) International Convention, March 1-4, 2015, in Toronto.
The Northern Ontario Mining Showcase will consist of a 5,800 square-feet exhibition space where mining-related businesses and organizations from Northern Ontario will promote the region and its mining potential, while highlighting their products and services to the more than 25,000 visitors from over 100 countries attending the PDAC convention.
