This online symposium is a global event to bring the mining geoscience and engineering community from diverse professional Societies together over a series of five 1/2 day sessions to share advances and case histories in the application of mining geosciences throughout the entire life cycle of a mine. With 39 presentations on mining geoscience and geo-engineering advances and practice, this is an event not to be missed if you are involved in mining and mine site production, consulting, or research.

​

Please share news of this event with your mining geoscience colleagues and encourage their participation.
