Zusammenfassung: This, the 2nd International Symposium on the Processing of Zinc Ores and Concentrates (Zinc Processing '10), is organised by Minerals Engineering International.

Primary zinc production is complicated by the fact that sphalerite is usually associated with economic amounts of lead and copper minerals, and is often contained in a gangue high in pyrite. The complex intergrowths often mean that very fine grinding is required, followed by selective flotation.

Some of the most important developments which have taken place in minerals engineering in recent years have involved the treatment of these ores and in the subsequent extraction of zinc from concentrates.

Papers are invited on all aspects of the processing of zinc ores and concentrates, including:

- Production of zinc concentrates and the associated problems encountered in comminution and flotation due to the complex mineralogy of Pb-Zn, Cu-Zn and Cu-Pb-Zn deposits.
- Treatment of zinc concentrates by hydrometallurgical, biohydrometallurgical and pyrometallurgical routes.
- Environmental issues associated with the treatment of the ores and concentrates.

Zusammenfassung: With some of the world’s largest deposits of minerals and metals, Indonesia offers a vast range of opportunities for the discerning mining investor. The quote above reflects the uncertainty felt by investors when viewing Indonesia. Returning this 2010, the 2nd Indonesia Mining will revolved around how mining industry leaders are improving the current investment climate for coal & non-coal mining in Indonesia. Mining industry stakeholders and investors, such as you, will gain up-to-date information on how your mining operations are being impacted by government initiatives to reduce uncertainty, and the best strategies to succeed in this highly prospective mining market.

Zusammenfassung: This, the 2nd International Symposium on Sustainability through Resource Conservation and Recycling '11 (SRCR '11), is organised by Minerals Engineering International in consultation with Prof Markus Reuter. This conference discusses all aspects of material and metal usage.

Zusammenfassung: We currently face a public debate on climate change. On one side stand those who oppose the mere notion of man-induced climate change. On the other there is a strong faction that, in its extreme, prophesises a near-future 'doomsday'. In the middle stands a community that would like to see a sound discussion and actual proofs going beyond unproven climate modelling.

It would be naive to think that modern industrialised societies play no part in climate change. The minerals industry is one of the largest producers of carbon dioxide, and the need to reduce emissions, coupled with the global recession, is having a huge economic impact.

Until it is proven whether climate change is human-induced or not, legislation and common-sense demand that carbon emissions be reduced, particularly from high CO2 producers such as the minerals industry.

Zusammenfassung: The objective of the 22nd International Mining Congress of Turkey organized biennially by the Chamber of Mining Engineers is to bring together mining professionals and to provide an international platform to discuss and exchange new developments and applications in their associated fields.

Zusammenfassung: This, the 1st International Symposium on Risk-Based Approaches to Major Decisions (Risk '11), is organised by Minerals Engineering International in association with RMRI.

Risk management is a vital decision-making tool in modern industry and commerce. Since virtually every decision involves some element of uncertainty, and because there are risks inherent in most of the key issues facing companies today, the ability to understand risks and manage them effectively is an important ingredient for success. This is particularly true when assessing complex and large scale decisions where considerable capital is involved.

In such cases, risk-based approaches have been shown to be highly effective because they enable decision makers to make informed management choices based on structured information and analysis and to demonstrate the basis of their decisions.

This conference will look at areas in the construction, management and operation of large scale assets where adopting a risk-based approach to decision-making offers advantages in terms of both reduced risks and commercial benefit. Novel areas of application will be discussed and innovative techniques that are demonstrably cost effective will be introduced.

Zusammenfassung: This, the 8th International Comminution Symposium (Comminution '12) is organised by MEI in consultation with Prof Malcolm Powell and Dr. Aubrey Mainza. It is sponsored by Starkey & Associates, Industrial Minerals & The Gold & Minerals Gazette.

Zusammenfassung: Although there are many operations worldwide, treating a wide range of industrial minerals, processing problems are often similar. The aim of this conference is therefore to bring together operators and scientists from apparently disparate fields, ranging from cement to potash processing and coal preparation, to discuss common problems encountered in comminution, classification, flotation, physical separation, dewatering and other areas.
