"The Mining Industry Human Resource Council is pleased to have collaborated with Northern Ontario Business on the RockON! project.

"Thank you for the RockON magazine. We offer tours of our college to local high school students who are encouraged to consider careers in natural resources, including geology. We also promote our program to students entering their first semester here at Fleming College. The magazine will certainly help us to promote mining and geology as viable career options."

"RockON shows you the different types of careers in the Mining Industry, the requirements for and how much money you can make. It's also good that they have real people from those careers to give you the information."

"The title, and layout of the RockOn Magazine resonates extremely well with just about everyone - especially the youth - the target group. It is bright and very vibrant and enticing - you want to pick it up. The content is factual, interesting, current and diverse within the core subject. The piece on each person is "bite-size" and digestible and easy to read. This is one of the best pieces of promotional material about the minerals industry that I have seen in my 40 years of mining (and 26 years of teaching mining). This is a fabulous promotional tool as it also captures the mood and dynamism of the minerals industry - especially the mining aspect. Great job Norm."
