The Seventh International Mining Geology Conference was a unique event
targeted directly at mining geologists, and was designed to review the advances
in knowledge since the first meeting 19 years ago. The proceedings contains
papers covering geological modelling, resource evaluation, underground and open
pit grade control, project case studies, geometallurgy and new technologies.
Case studies include projects in Australia, Canada, Finland, Ghana, Greenland,
Indonesia, South Africa, New Zealand and United Kingdom, and cover commodities
such as bauxite, coal, diamonds, gold, silver, poly-metallics (Ni-Cu-Co-Zn) and
mineral sands.
