The Conference will provide a forum for presentation and discussion about successful practices that enable responsible mining to be undertaken in challenging environments, while minimizing water use and/or preserving water resources.

The Organizing Committee invites your participation as a conference sponsor or in presenting an exhibit.

The call for abstracts and short course proposals is open until July 2nd, 2012.

The Conference will provide a forum for presentation and discussion about successful practices that enable responsible mining to be undertaken in challenging environments, while minimizing water use and/or preserving water resources. All aspects of mine water management, including hydrology, hydrogeology, diversion, containment, water conservation, minimization of water quality impacts, seepage interception, and treatment may be addressed. Management of water associated with mine dewatering, waste rock and tailings are of particular interest.

The map will be distributed in Australia with the June edition of AUSIMM. You can purchase a digitial map through InfoMine’s eStore. Folded and digital maps will be available shortly.

InfoMine is tackling the subject of mining salaries, compensation and benefits in its African Mining Salaries, Wages and Benefits 2012 report – set to be the industry’s benchmark for employee costing in Africa. As part of the research, we are conducting a survey of employee costs, and invite all companies active in the African mining industry to participate.

Collaboration is an important way to obtain a clear view of these costs and this valuable information can contribute to improving operations and the industry as a whole, as it expands across Africa. Please contact Katja Freitag or Juliet Du Preez or call InfoMine’s office in Johannesburg at +27 11 467 6873 for more information.

Since 2010, R2Mining (Australasia CostMine Centre) has produced three cost estimating products specific to Australia: the Australian Mine and Mill Equipment Costs Guide (AMME), the Australian Coal Cost Guide (ACCG), and the Australian Metal Cost Guide (AMCG).

Newly released in April 2012, the AMCG is the metal industry’s standard reference for mine cost estimating for all base and precious metals. Based on CostMine’s popular Mining Cost Service, it provides all necessary information for scoping and pre-feasibility studies, including equipment capital costs, supplies, transportation, smelting costs for copper, lead and zinc, metal mining and milling cost indices and historical metal prices. It also includes Australian-based metal mine salaries and wages, and electric power and natural gas costs. The Cost Models section includes models for surface and underground mines, milling operations, and precious metal processing.

The AMME, a comprehensive guide to equipment capital and operating cost data, is available in a hard copy or as an online, interactive database. The interactive database allows the user to select the equipment fleet, adjust the supplies and repair labour costs to reflect local parameters and then download a report to Excel.

The ACCG is the Australian coal mining industry’s most comprehensive data source for pre-feasibility studies. It is the coal centric version of our AMCG, with the added benefit of coal specific cost model and Australian-based coal mine salaries and wages.

These products can be purchased from R2Mining or CostMine. Contact Sean Shafiee or call +61 (7) 3365-5866.
