THE MINING LIFE

AUSIMM WILL RUN TWO OF ITS CONFERENCES - LIFE OF MINE AND MINE WASTE AND TAILINGS - SIDE-BY-SIDE IN JULY.

- 

AusIMM is set to turn the mining conference world on its head in 2025.

For the first time, the peak industry body is running two of its most influential events side-by-side: Life of Mine and Mine Waste and Tailings (LOMMWT2025) conferences.

To be held in Brisbane from July 29–30, LOMMWT2025 will be a dynamic event with a broader scope and increased networking opportunities – and keynote speaker Dr Emma Gagen is looking especially forward to the opening day.

"I love the Life of Mine conference, because it’s truly cross-disciplinary," Gagen told Australian Mining.

"It’s cross-disciplinary because, by nature, mine planning, closure, waste management, and post-mining transitions can't be done without disciplines talking to each other.

"This year, I'm excited to see the synergies between Life of Mine and the Waste and Tailings conference being leveraged to look at that design, planning and integrated closure approach to tailings storage facilities also getting a feature."
