The first official conference programme has been released for the International Mining & Resources Conference (IMARC), which will be held in Melbourne from 25–27 October. Early-bird tickets are available until 9th July.  

Recent global statistics are all pointing to an economic recovery led by the mining and resources industry – especially in Australia, where mining industry GDP increased 4.9 per cent in 2019-20, to total $202 billion.


Coupled with these positive numbers however, are the operational impacts that Covid-19 has had on the industry. Global miners and their supply chains have had to continue their ‘new-normal’ approach to smarter mining, progress ESG considerations, and work towards community and stakeholder confidence, as well as best utilise new technologies and innovation that drive sustainability and accessibility – all whilst balancing production and driving results to the bottom-line.

 

The task hasn’t been easy. However, through collaboration – whether that be a top-down approach from management, or strong lateral ties between miners, METS, governments, associations and stakeholders – the mining industry has set new standards and achieved some excellent OH&S, community, workforce and productivity results.

Showcasing best practice in the global mining industry

This year’s International Mining & Resources Conference (IMARC) will showcase these best practices from across the global mining and resources industry through C-level insights, case study presentations from operators, and thought leadership showcases from innovators.

The three-day conference programme will promote how the industry has performed over the global pandemic, and what is still to come.
