PwC 2024 Mine Report: Preparing for impact

Join the Melbourne Branch for their July event: PwC 2024 Mine Report: Preparing for impact.

About this event

Transitioning to a low carbon economy is essential, and mining plays a crucial role in this transformation. The demand for critical and strategic minerals is skyrocketing, presenting a significant challenge that requires substantial investment.

However, the journey doesn't stop there. Mining companies must also focus on decarbonising their operations to meet the heightened community expectations of today. This complex transformation is happening amidst a backdrop of declining mineral prices and rising costs, impacting short-term profitability.

In our 21st edition of Mine we dive deep into these major themes and others as the impact on the Top 40 global mining companies and across the industry.

Program:
5.00pm - 5.30pm: Arrival and networking
5.30pm - 7.00pm: Presentation and Q&A
7.00pm - Onwards: Post event networking
