#1. PANEL: Day 1
Overview of Critical Mineral Strategies
9:00am - 10:00am
The quest for critical minerals is top of mind for many today and with that, many opportunities may present themselves for Indigenous communities. In this session, we will learn about critical mineral strategies from both the federal government and industry perspective. Panelists will also provide their views on where the opportunities lie for Indigenous communities in the mining for critical minerals; not only in the development and operation of the mines themselves, but also in ancillary activities such as infrastructure, value add processing, etc., that could be led by Indigenous businesses.
