DRIVING REAL CHANGE IN THE WAY THE MINING INDUSTRY MANAGES WATER

The Water in Mining Global Summit is the premier forum for professionals dedicated to learning and implementing transformative practices in mining water management. This event offers an unparalleled opportunity to connect with a high concentration of senior leaders and influencers who are championing water stewardship and shaping the future of water in the mining industry.

The event attracts over 250 attendees from international mining companies, consultants, NGOs, academics, government, regulators, indigenous communities, leading associations and the supply chain to learn the latest regulatory updates, investor and shareholder expectations on water management, global strategies on water stewardship, advancements in water treatment technologies and water modelling, and insights on efficiently utilising water in mine closure and tailings management.

The VIP audience will have opportunity to interact throughout the day, commenting on the presentations, contributing to problem-solving and sharing their own experiences. Regulators and policymakers will be in the audience, giving delegates an opportunity to influence at the highest level.

Lesley Warren, Director, Mining Futures, University of Toronto

"The hallmarks of the Global Water in Mining Summit are thoughtful presentations, panel discussions and audience inclusive conversations not afraid to go deep on specifics (successes and failures) that include these dimensions. The Summit always leaves me energized and inspired by the willingness to meaningfully share and collaborate, as well as excited to see the real advances that are happening."

“I always pleased to see such collaborations being formed in real-time during the conference, with attendees a positive outlook and following through with their commitments to each other. Because that is what mining is all about. A commitment to each other, to source minerals responsibly by ensuring to protect human life and doing all that is possible to minimize the impact on the environment and maximize its ability to recover after mining operations cease.”
