PDAC 2016 reported a reduced attendance from the previous year,continuing the trend of lower attendances year on year for several years in a row now.
A total of around 22,000 delegates attended in 2016, down from 23,500 reported in 2015.
Unsurprisingly, given the rout in the mining sector, the attendance for PDAC 2016 was less than 2015, reduced by 1,500 delegates to 22,000.
Still, in these poor markets for mining investors, that was still a good turnout, in fact probably better than expected!
