The Osisko Mining Corporation: Official Presenter of the Event
The AEMQ and the Osisko Mining Corporation are proud to be partners in hosting the 2012 Convention. "We have always supported the AEMQ in its activities, and it seems natural to become a major partner in this unique event, which will bring together all the players in our industry," says Sean Roosen, President of Osisko. "Furthermore, the AEMQ plays an essential role in promoting information and awareness about our industry, which is still little-known and often misunderstood, especially our exploration segment."
"Selecting Osisko as the official sponsor of our 2012 Convention seemed natural," says Jean-Marc Lulin, President of the AEMQ. "Having become an operating company less than a year ago, Osisko has always stood out for the quality and innovative character of its practices, especially in terms of responsible exploration."
The sponsorship plan developed by the AEMQ will allow a range of businesses to make themselves known and position themselves at an event that brings together various players in the mining industry, making the most of customized and targeted visibility options.
An already well established popularity
More than six months before it is held, the Mining Exploration Convention will soon sell out its exhibition spaces. The event already includes numerous players among mining companies and service providers. The list of businesses whose attendance has been confirmed is available on the Convention's website. The invitation to take part in this unique mining exploration industry meeting has been launched.
