Saskatchewan’s mining industry has been continuously ramping up over the past few years. Whether it's rare earth elements, uranium, or closer to the Humboldt area, potash, the industry is a key driver of economic well-being in the province.  

During Saskatchewan Mining Week, May 28 – June 3 as declared by the provincial government, it’s a chance to celebrate the accomplishment of those involved who keep the industry strong.

One other charge was withdrawn.
