KEY CONVERSATIONS SHAPING MINING'S FUTURE

WA MINING IS PROMOTING CONVERSATIONS THAT WILL SHAPE THE INDUSTRY'S FUTURE, FEATURING MAJOR PLAYERS SUCH AS FORTESCUE AND ALCOA.

- 

The WA Mining Conference and Exhibition returns to Perth in 2025 with a jam-packed conference program of key decision makers in the resources sector.

From decarbonisation and critical minerals to safety, rehabilitation and policy, the two-day event will deliver insights and strategies no one in the industry can afford to miss.

Day one opens with a presentation from Fortescue Eliwana general manager Asad Majrouh.

Eliwana, a key Pilbara operation producing 30 million tonnes of iron ore annually, sees ore transported 428km by rail to Herb Elliott port in Port Hedland, supporting a workforce of more than 1000 people.

Eliwana is set to be Fortescue's first mine to fully transition away from fossil fuels, with a 20-megawatt battery energy storage system under construction.

There will be crucial insights, as the company continues to balance operational excellence with future growth.
