This exciting event will take place at the Mahon Theatre (Conference Room) of the City of Prince Albert Public Library from November 2-8, 2024. It’s an experience designed for everyone, whether you’re a resource industry professional, student, business leader, or simply curious about the raw materials that shape the world around us.
Understanding the raw materials that make up everyday items—from the materials in your home to those powering industries—is something we all can appreciate. ICERMs 2024 offers a unique platform to explore how resources from Saskatchewan, Manitoba, and Kogi State, Nigeria are key to daily life and the global economy. This year’s theme, Discovering the Economic Viability of Manitoba’s Raw Materials, highlights the vital role these resources play in sustainable development and emerging technologies.

One of the main attractions is the Live Raw Materials Contest, where 500 questions will challenge attendees’ knowledge of the raw materials industry. 25% of the questions focus on Saskatchewan’s resources, while 75% will spotlight Manitoba’s. This reflects CACERMDI’s dedication to promoting Saskatchewan’s raw materials while showcasing resources from other regions. This year, the Government of Kogi State, Nigeria, will participate for the first time, exhibiting the unique raw materials of Kogi State, which emphasizes the growing international collaboration fostered by ICERMs.
