What is Mines for Limitless Minds?

Mines for Limitless Minds is an outdoor festival that brings the world of mining and minerals directly to University of Arizona students. Here they’ll learn what mineral resources are, how we use them every day, and how they are acquired. They’ll also discover how they can be a part of this exciting field! With numerous education and career pathways on full display, there’s something for everyone at Mines for Limitless Minds!

Who is the target audience?

The event is open to the more than 44,000 undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Arizona, most of whom know very little about mining and mineral resources, and even less about the exciting career opportunities this industry has to o er. You’ll also encounter members of the general public, university faculty and sta .

What's on display?

Everything from the latest technology and equipment, to innovations in sustainability, to what it’s like to explore the far corners of the earth (and beyond!). In addition to dozens of exhibitors, the event will feature a haul-truck simulator, virtual reality mine tour, an electric vehicle, space mining exhibit, drones and robotics, plants that mine, a student life showcase, and career center with tips for winning resumes and successful interviews!

Who can participate?

Exploration and mining companies, consultancies, suppliers, regulators, professional societies, clubs and educators – basically anyone who can demonstrate to young people how they can be a part of this important field (and why they should!) – are encouraged to participate. See registration for more information.

Event Marketing

This event will take place in a highly trafficked area in the middle of campus, right in front of the student union. You can expect a lot of foot traffc, and a lot of event signage.

That said, we’ll be working hard to drive students to the event through on-campus communications channels and partners, external partners, and social media.

HERE’S HOW YOU CAN HELP:
  • UArizona will send you social media assets that you can share to your platforms to promote that your organization will be on campus and at the event.
  • Reach out to your contacts. Do you know someone who works on campus? Let them know you're going to be at the event!
