## Description

Mining Matters is a Canadian charitable organization that helps young people, educators, and the public understand Earth sciences, geology, and the country’s mineral resources. It shares current information about rocks, minerals, metals, mining, and career opportunities in the minerals industry, highlighting how these subjects relate to society.

The organization offers a broad range of educational resources and programs. Teachers can access classroom resource kits, lesson plans, activities, posters, books, articles, games, videos, tutorials, and professional development opportunities, including training and workshops. Mining Matters also provides school programs, virtual student geoscience workshops, education tours, field trip subsidies, Indigenous programs, and STEM partnerships. Students can explore hands-on activities and challenges designed to make Earth science engaging and accessible.

Mining Matters supports learning beyond the classroom through events and resources for educators, and it shares news and updates through its website and social media. Supported by government and foundation grants, as well as corporate and individual donations, the organization works to build knowledge and awareness of the minerals industry and its role in everyday life.
