What benefits come from a membership with the PPDA?
Membership dues go directly to the PPDA. A dedicated group of volunteers will work hard to protect your job and business by lobbying for support of the exploration and mining industries, and by providing educational outreach in the community. We work to maintain a strong exploration industry today, in order to ensure that we will find new mines tomorrow.
