Transforming Mining

Looking into the future, we will re-design how mining operates during interactive Collaboration Laboratory breakout sessions.

We will explore the latest technologies, and challenge ourselves to explore new ways of mining in order to transform our future.

Key insights from the Collaboration Laboratories will be shared and discussed at an open forum at the end of the conference.

Harnessing Mega-Trends In Tech

Is there a place for mining in the metaverse, and can we move quickly enough to harness the bleeding edge of tech?

Opening Innovation

We talk about being open, but the reality is our culture is firmly rooted in the past. There are glimmers of progress, but how can we create a vibrant ecosystem to achieve a truly open environment?

Leading A Positive Legacy

It is up to each one of us lead the future we need and the time for action is now. Never have there been so many challenges to overcome, and it is only collectively that we can create a positive and proud legacy for generations to come.
