Rock Talk 2025

Rock Talk 2025

SEG will get down to planning in the fall  for Rock Talk 2025. Watch for sponsorship opportunities.

Rock Talk 2024 was held February 20 to 23 in Smithers with more than 110 delegates jamming the Smithers Curling Rink. Thanks to the work of EMLI Regional Geologist Nate Corcoran, the speakers covered the full range of exploration and mining projects in northwest BC, as well as the North Central region.

Rock Talk 2024 sponsors were very supportive in making Rock Talk a success and laid the groundwork for SEG’s year-round work on behalf of the mineral industry in the region.
