ABMEC to Address Key Issues Affecting the Global Mining and Minerals Market

The Association of British Mining Equipment Companies (ABMEC) is holding its Annual Mining Conference at the Warmsworth Hall Hotel, Doncaster on Thursday, November 14, and with a line-up of ten speakers, is set to address key issues affecting the global mining and minerals market.

The keynote speaker will be Keith Brown, who will draw on his 20 years industrial experience, including a story of survival in a South African gold mine, and the way it can change lives forever.

Other speakers will be John Ford (H&S executive), Chris Hinde (InterraRMG research), Jim Kier (UK Export Finance), Paul Moore (editor, International Mining magazine), Daniel Smith (Latham & Watkins law firm), Chris Torrens (Control Risks), David Vint (ArcellorMittal) and Jim Walker (mining industry veteran, and past-president of ABMEC).
The proceedings will be moderated by BBC correspondent Nick Higham who will chair what promises to be a lively and thought-provoking Q&A session, with a strong focus on recent trends and the changes which are taking place in this key economic sector of the economy.

At a time when the UK domestic mining industry is shrinking, it will explore emerging markets and new overseas opportunities, and while addressing the acknowledged obstacles, will emphasise the potential rewards available.
