Preserving the History of Haileybury

Meet

Viola R. MacMillan

When thinking of women who have shaped PDAC and the Canadian mineral exploration and mining industry, it is hard to look past our very own Viola R. MacMillan. This pioneer helped grow a small regional association of prospectors into the internationally recognized brand that PDAC is today. She is the maker of many milestones for women in our sector, including being inducted into the Canadian Mining Hall of Fame in 1991. Viola remains PDAC’s longest-serving president, and there is even an award named after her. Learn more about this trailblazer and her remarkable career in mineral exploration and mining below.
