“Mining 4 Everyone” Will Showcase The Inclusive Culture Of The Mining Industry At The Cim 2014 Convention
“Mining 4 Everyone” is the theme that will drive topics of discussion at the upcoming CIM 2014 Convention taking place at the Vancouver Convention Centre from May 10 to 13. The convention, put on by the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum, is expected to attract more than 6,000 mining industry professionals.
“Over the course of the CIM Convention, we will be tackling the many issues emanating from the growing shortage of skills, making succession planning for the industry a challenge,” says Robert W. Schafer, CIM 2014 Convention co-chair and CIM president. “More than 140,000 new workers will be required by 2020, and creating great opportunities for all workers including women, aboriginal communities and immigrants can ensure the future of mining in Canada.”
The Technical Program will feature seven streams including: Global Dimensions of Mining; Innovations; Harnessing our Diverse World; Managing Operations: Mine to Mill; Construction to Production; Rock Mechanics and, for the first time, the CIM Convention will host the Ethics in Mining Symposium, in partnership with the Canadian Business Ethics Research Network. CIM 2014’s three-day Technical Program will kick off with an electrifying Plenary session featuring a marquee lineup of industry leaders examining the convention’s theme, moderated by the award-winning investigative journalist and co-host of the CBC’s The Fifth Estate, Mark Kelley.
The Expo! – Canada’s mining marketplace - will host 500+ exhibiting companies featuring the latest in mining equipment, tools, technologies and services.
