Organization Overview: The Minerals Education Coalition (MEC) is SMEF’s designated program to develop and deliver accurate and suitable K-12 education materials and activities and conduct public awareness outreach about mining and minerals.

Several distinct, yet equally important groups, are the targeted audiences for the activities of the MEC, specifically: 1) K-12 students who are the consumers of the future and potential employees of the mining industry; 2) teachers of K-12 students who will provide the knowledge and skills needed to provide factual and meaningful instruction and experiences for youth; 3) SME members throughout the nation who locally provide accurate and significant educational activities for K-12 students and the general public; and, 4) the general public who are the beneficiaries of mining and minerals in their daily lives.
