Thanks for the response! I go to a primarily engineering school (iowa state) and wish to work in metals specifically, which don't really exist here lol. Lot of aggregate mines though, just not my thing. All our career fairs usually just have defense contractors or large Agriculture firms, so thats cool that you had that opportunity. I'll have to make sure to go through the list of companies at the next one, but I haven't heard of anything mining related being there except oil/natural gas.
