Investing in Your Success!

Educational Focus Primary consideration will be given to students entering the field of business, mining, engineering, geology, science, environment, community development, health and safety and other support roles related to mining. Other areas of study may be given secondary consideration.

Incomplete applications will not be considered and must be submitted by the advertised deadline.

Applicants on academic probation will not be eligible for scholarship funds until they have been removed from academic probation. 5. Recipients will not be penalized for changing their study area provided it remains within the eligible criteria.
