Thursday 25 August 2016
9.00am – 5.00pm
Grand Chancellor
23 Leichhardt Street, Brisbane
This seminar occurs at a time when both the mining industry and its service providers are under severe financial stress consequent upon the decline in global mineral commodity prices. In the resulting struggle to remain viable, some industry initiatives and reactions do not appear to reflect a thorough understanding of the potential consequences these stresses create on the necessarily close relationship needed between the industry and its various players.
Consultants present a resource to the mining industry through the diversity and depth of the skills and experience they have attained. They can act as direct advisors, objective evaluators, contributors and constructive critics of proposals which may otherwise derive from ‘in-house group think’. Consulting services are applied in many different roles, including in resource evaluation and mining approach option studies, operational support and improvement and in IPO and M&A activity.
The mining industry and community who appoint consultants expect and deserve to receive value from their engagement and expenditure on consultants. The value received from the engagement and interaction in turn depends on the framing of realistic and equitable performance and outcome goals within the consulting brief.
This one day seminar provides representatives from both the mining and consulting sectors with an opportunity to discuss, debate and clarify the critical issues involved in achieving the best value from the use of consultants, and inform existing and new industry representatives and consultants as to what is expected of them.
The seminar will conclude with a Panel Discussion Session chaired by Geoff Sharrock FAusIMM(CP),
Immediate Past President, AusIMM, followed by a Networking Function.
