Dear SME Members,
We would like to take this opportunity to honor our SME members on National Miners Day, December 6, and say Thank You to those who have given so much to our community. The mining industry truly is a close-knit community, whose members are likened to family. Our brothers and sisters who work in the mining and minerals industries provide the resources that drive economies and raise the standard of living for people worldwide. You often work in challenging environments so that our lives may be more comfortable. Thank you for your devotion to the industry and to your colleagues.
David L. Kanagy
SME Executive Director
