As Conference Chair I look forward to welcoming you all personally in Winnipeg during COM 2008.

Zusammenfassung: The next annual AusIMM New Zealand Branch Conference is to be held in Wellington from 31 August to 3 September, 2008.

Branch Conferences examine, update and comment on the minerals and mining industry in New Zealand and further afield. The Conferences attract quality technical and support industry papers. For example at the 2008 Conference up to the minute reports will be given on New Zealand activities while our President, Peter McCarthy, is again scheduled to address the Conference.

The Conference, which typically attracts over half the Branch membership and those active in the New Zealand industry amongst the 250-350 attendees, gives an unparalleled opportunity to find out just what is happening in NZ. As well as the papers sessions there are excellent networking opportunities while field trips will be offered.

Zusammenfassung: Water injection has been used for decades as a mean of improved oil recovery. More recently, stronger environmental awareness has led authority to prohibit the discharge of produced water. In a sense this further complicates water management between its two traditional components – i.e. mechanics and chemistry. The balance between surface treatment of the injected water and the use of higher-pressure pumps has always been a challenge but it is further exacerbated by the need to inject hotter and dirtier fluids. This challenge exists both for existing installations where the room of manoeuvre is limited and the design of optimised future installations.

Zusammenfassung: MEMSA was first founded as the organization known for fifty four years as OPMA. The Open Pit Mining Organization was founded in 1945 by a group of electrical mining employees in a small area know for it’s surface coal. Joining together to trade knowledge and ideas relative to the mining industry, this group of men and women miners with an electrical interest has grown through the years to include mine electricians, electrical supervisors, and electrical engineers from a diverse spectrum of mining interests including coal, phosphate, aggregates, and potash to name a few.

Electrical suppliers, utilities, service and repair shops, machine and power cable manufacturers, universities and other support groups of the mining industry have joined with this organization to provide a leading forum for electrical leaders of the mining industry .

Zusammenfassung: Throughout the world, coal is a major energy source, providing nearly 25% of the world's primary energy consumption. Although coal's share of total energy use was previously expected to decline in the future, the recent high cost of natural gas and petroleum together with projected increasing demand and decreasing reserves of both have created a heightened interest in the use of coal within the United States. However, to maintain this growth, the industry must be responsive to increasing pressures on environmental emissions and global warming as well as improve its public image.

Zusammenfassung: Rising to the challenge through innovation and professionalism

Narrow vein mining operations form a relatively small but vital part of our international mining industry. For example, many historical gold fields are now being reworked or redeveloped, including those of Central Victoria, Hill End and Charters Towers in Australia. The skills and expertise required to manage these natural resources are arguably highly specialised, and can include dealing with issues of complex geology and geometry, a high nugget effect, high planned and additional dilution, the need for high selectivity, high stress conditions, low tonnes per vertical metre, coarse gold and/or complex metallurgy.

Zusammenfassung: The potential of microwave technology, which exploits the differing thermal dielectric properties of minerals to enhance grain boundary fracture, has been understood for more than 20 years, but has not been considered commercially viable until recently because of the large amount of energy required. However recent developments, such as pulsed microwave technology may overcome this. As microwave technology is aimed at improving mineral liberation, its major use will probably be in comminution, and will bring real advantages to the processing of ores, such as diamonds, where the valuable mineral needs to be recovered intact. However there are many aspects of mineral processing and extractive metallurgy where the use of microwaves will have importance, and the areas that have been intensively researched over recent years include:

Zusammenfassung: The conference will consist of workshops, field trips, and oral and poster presentations. The four main topic areas are minerals, petroleum, environmental, and geothermal.

Zusammenfassung: Toxic metals can affect human health. Some toxic metal anions, including arsenic, antimony, selenium and tellurium are by-products of the mining and processing of major metal ores, such as those of copper, lead and zinc.

These by-product metals can find their way into soils and ground water. Arsenic, for instance, occurs naturally in many complex mineral rocks, and in this form is relatively harmless, but when exposed to air and water, it becomes soluble and toxic to plants, animals and humans. Both mining and drilling wells for drinking water can expose the arsenic and turn it into two soluble forms, arsenate and arsenite.

Zusammenfassung: The chemistry of the Earth records detailed information about the way in which the Earth formed, reacted and changed to form the planet that we live on today. The secrets of planetary formation and clues about the evolution of life have always held a basic societal fascination. Topically, understanding the Earth's chemistry is essential in uncovering how the mineral and biological world interact, discovering new mineral and energy resources, finding safe drinking water supplies, understanding how and why climate is changing, and developing technologies to mitigate some of the damage that man has done to the planet.

'Our Volatile Planet' represents a topic central to all of these themes. Volatile elements and compounds, such as water, are those which have a tendency to exist in a vapour or gas phase, to boil or dissipate. Water is essential for life, controls planetary scale processes of subduction, earthquakes and even volcanic outpourings. Water forms beautiful mineral formations, transports the suns energy from the equator to the Polar Regions and, when polluted, kills. Our society is also volatile. Wars are fought over mineral resources, cities devastated by Earthquakes, and drought caused by changes in climate. Providing knowledge of Earths complex systems is essential if we are to balance society's needs with the available resources, changing climate and many and diverse, but fragile, ecosystems.

Goldschmidt 2009 brings together over 2000 of the worlds international experts in the chemistry of the Earth to present and debate breaking new work across these topics. It will be held in the Congress Center in Davos. This was the venue for the very successful 2002 meeting, and the Congress Center has now been enlarged in part to be able to accommodate conferences as large as ours.

Zusammenfassung: The conference will explore recent technical developments in gemology and related sciences. The scientific program includes invited lectures, oral and poster presentations, panel discussions, and a gem photography competition and workshop.

Zusammenfassung: COM 2009 will be a unique opportunity to explore technological, scientific and strategic trends. Among the numerous attendees, there will be industry executives, representatives of universities and research institutes, design engineers, H.R. professionals, plant operators, as well as metallurgical, environmental and health experts from all over the world.

Zusammenfassung: The International Biohydrometallurgy Symposium 2009 (IBS-09) will be the 18th event of highly successful meetings where basic scientists and industrial experts meet to interchange experimental results and ideas about this interdisciplinary field. The locations of the international symposia circulate between different geographical regions. Following the symposium in Frankfurt, we are very pleased to welcome you to join us at IBS-09 in the nice city of Bariloche-Argentina in 2009.

IBS-07 has emphasized the remediation of mining activities and environmental protection connected with mining and mining industries. Evidently, our attention should follow mainly on those topics due to their importance for the society in developed and developing countries.
