AME is pleased to bring back our Mentorship Program to match students and young professionals with experienced leaders to help them navigate the industry and accelerate their professional growth.

This event will connect mentors and mentees to have an in-person chat, networking opportunities, tips on how to make the most of your AME Roundup experience and a keynote from Anne Thompson, President of PetraScience Consultants Inc.

Talk: Anne Thompson: Curiosity, Communication and Collaboration – Building a Career
Curiosity drives discovery in mineral exploration, but its value extends beyond technical problem-solving. It encourages us to ask thoughtful questions, listen deeply, and engage with different perspectives — skills that underpin effective communication and collaboration. Through personal career reflections, lessons learned from hosting the Discovery to Recovery podcast, and participant interaction, this presentation aims to inspire and challenge you while supporting the development of strong and effective mentoring relationships.
