| 3.Human Asset Expansion In Mining |
| Dates | 15 Mar 2012 → 16 Mar 2012 | [ID=439300]  |
| Location | London, United Kingdom |
| Abstract | The event will highlight the key issues faced by coal mining industry like the challenge of managing people, as a result of fundamental changes in new work forms and employment relations in recent times. The shortage of skilled labor is one issue, creating a bottleneck effect on further expansion and development of coalmines in the Bowen Basin. Effective management of contract workforce is another issue, as the level of contract labor used by the mining companies specially coal firms has been steadily increasing for the past few years. However, managing this group of peripheral workforce is beyond the traditional framework of managing employment relation. |

| 8.GeoShale2012 — Recent Advances in Geology of Fine-grained Sediments |
| Dates | 14 May 2012 → 16 May 2012 | [ID=462327]  |
| Location | Warsaw, Poland |
| Abstract | Fine grained sediments form approximately 70% of sedimentary record. Because of the wide spectrum of the application, the great increase of the interest in shale is observed. Shales are traditionally known as a source and seal rock for the petroleum industry and become recognized nowadays as very important reservoir target in the shale gas/oil play. Their low permeability has also a major impact on waste storage planning, including CO2 and nuclear waste. The Paleozoic basins in Poland have recently become the area of very intense studies of shale sequences in Europe due to their hydrocarbon potential. |

| 15.Nickel Processing '12 — Processing of Nickel Ores and Concentrates '12 |
| Dates | 14 Nov 2012 → 15 Nov 2012 | [ID=399470]  |
| Location | Cape Town, South Africa |
| Abstract | This, the 3rd International Symposium on Processing of Nickel Ores & Concentrates (Nickel Processing '12), is organised by Minerals Engineering International in consultation with Dr Norman Lotter. Nickel-bearing ores are seldom in the league of mega-tonnage such as occur in the porphyry copper deposits. The scale and life-of-mine of nickel operations are thus much more limited, and one has to maximize the asset worth by processing efficiency rather than volume. Whereas the nickel market has started to stabilize after the recession of 2008/9, it will be a while before we see the record highs of a few years ago when the metal price peaked at $25/lb. Although nickel operations are often complemented by other payable metals such as copper and the platinum-group elements, under the current market conditions, every gain that can be sustainably made on recovery and grade enhances the business case. It is intended that the conference will attract contributions from experts around the world, to provide a forum for discussion of common problems and possible performance opportunities. |

| 16.SRCR '13 — Sustainability through Resource Conservation and Recycling '13 |
| Dates | 06 May 2013 → 08 May 2013 | [ID=432254]  |
| Location | Falmouth, United Kingdom |
| Abstract | The rapid growth of the world economy is straining the sustainable use of the Earth?s natural resources due to modern society?s extensive use of metals, materials and products. An astute and conscious application and use of metals, materials and products supported by the reuse and recycling of these materials and end-of-life products is imperative to the preservation of the Earth?s resources. The realisation of the ambitions of sustainable use of metals, materials and resources demands that the different disciplines of the material and consumer product system are connected and harmonised. This conference will discuss all aspects of material and metal usage. |
