| Why Should You Attend? |
During mining it is expected that the mine owner continually updates plans for mine closure and rehabilitation. Although this is expected it is hardly ever so, hence the growing number of abandoned mine sites. This conference seeks to assist owners of active mines to get their legislative requirements and costs in order to ensure that they leave the site in a safe and secure condition. |
