Mining Risk Management

Add to cart
This three-day event was organised by the Sydney Branch of The AusIMM and comprised 70 speakers focusing on managing risk in mining over the full spectrum of activities. Risk management has become an increasingly integral part of the systems the major resource houses have been introducing in recent years, recognising the importance of effective management to their multiple bottom line responsibilities.
The proceedings contain the abstracts and papers by the eight keynotes and all the papers that were peer reviewed and edited in keeping with The AusIMM requirement for publication in the Proceedings and the on-going Chartered Professional Development program.
The six streams in the conference addressed Risk Management under the following areas:
Project Design and Execution
Coal Mining
Hard Rock mining
For the Stakeholders
Environment and Sustainability
The Safety Arena
