PD Hours
Continuing the success of previous Metfest’s in Orange, Perth, Kalgoorlie, Brisbane and Tasmania, the AusIMM Metallurgical Society and Adelaide Branch are pleased to announce a MetFest! for Adelaide in 2022, with the support of OZ Minerals.

About this event

MetFest! is an informal gathering of local metallurgists, sharing short presentations on their work at local mine sites, networking and socialising with their peers.

It’s a great opportunity for graduates and plant/project metallurgists to present to an audience in a low-pressure environment.

AusIMM Metallurgical Society and Adelaide Branch are pleased to announce the draft program for Metfest Adelaide.
