Open Cut Mine Planning & Operational Excellence 2012 Conference

The metals and mining industry is booming, and the Asia Pacific region is flush with investment. New projects are being commissioned, to meet this demand, creating immense opportunities not only for the mining companies, but also for mining contractors and service providers. South East Asia by itself is slated to draw in over US$30 billion in mining investment by 2016.

The Open Cut Mine Planning & Operational Excellence conference will showcase solutions to address key Technical, Operational and Commercial challenges in mine planning and development. Using project showcases from major mining operations across the world, the agenda will set benchmarks on operational efficiency, cost management and supply reliability. Equipment and technology solution providers will get the opportunity to hear from, and meet with leading mining companies from the region.
