KEY SPEAKERS INCLUDE
GLOBAL MINING WATER MANAGEMENT INITIATIVE 2011
Optimizing Water Usage, Minimizing Impact On Water Quality, Adapting To Changing Regulatory Frameworks & Effectively Monitoring, Reporting & Accounting For Water Usage
As regulations tighten and water resources become more scarce, managing water resources in mining production is increasingly becoming a central part of running commercially viable mining operations. In order to ensure regulatory compliance and maximize the efficiency and profitability of mining for all key commodities, it is vital that mining companies optimize their water usage and minimize the impact they have on water quality.
The Global Mining Water Management Initiative 2011 is the only truly global event where mining companies across a range of commodities will share best practices, case studies and innovative technologies for optimizing water usage, minimizing impact on water quality, mitigating the risk of climate change, adapting to changing regulatory frameworks & effectively monitoring, reporting & accounting for water usage.
On Day 1 of the event, directors from leading global mining companies will start by explaining how they have successfully minimized and optimized their water usage throughout mining production. They will then analyze strategies and technologies for minimizing impact on water quality and biodiversity before evaluating optimal methods and metrics for measuring, monitoring and reporting water usage to ensure regulatory compliance. Key regulators will also explain future water regulations that will have a commercial impact on mining companies and assess what mining companies can do to prepare for them.
On Day 2, speakers will examine long term trends to determine the impact that climate change and water scarcity will have on mining operations and strategies for mitigating this impact. They will also evaluate cutting edge technologies, including recycling technologies specific to the mining industry and provide details on best practice groundwater modeling strategies.
Speakers at this initiative will be:
- Explaining and examining cost-effective strategies and technologies for minimizing and optimizing water consumption
- Determining how to minimize the impact mining has on water quality and how to assess this impact with indicators and ecological assessment
- Understanding technologies pertaining to waste water treatment, acid mine drainage, recycling, thickening materials and rainwater segregation
- Assessing the risk posed by climate change to water availability and technologies available to minimize this risk
- Explaining how mining companies will operate to adhere to current and future regulations in the light of climate change and widespread water scarcity
- Giving practical case studies from real life experience in water management to determine how to achieve a technical process that represents an investable proposition
- Evaluating accurate methodologies for monitoring, reporting and accounting for water
- Providing groundwater modeling techniques and developing sustainable water infrastructure.

THE BUSINESS CASE
It is vital for the commercial viability of mining companies around the world that...
...they understand how to react to tightening regulatory frameworks around water usage and water quality in the short term as well as long term risks from water scarcity and climate change.
Because of this, the Global Mining Water Management Initiative 2011, will bring together directors from leading mining companies around the world and across the full spectrum of commodities to share best practices for optimizing water usage and minimizing the impact on water quality.
It will be the only event designed specifically for the mining industry where speakers will offer practical, commercial solutions for optimizing water usage, minimizing impact on water quality, mitigating the risk of climate change, adapting to changing regulatory frameworks & effectively monitoring, reporting & accounting for water usage.
Mining companies who have had measurable success ineffectively managing their water resources will be providing solutions on:
OPTIMIZING WATER USAGE: Understand how leading mining companies across a range of commodities have successfully minimized and optimized water usage in their production process to maximize efficiency and ensure regulatory compliance.
MINIMIZING WATER QUALITY IMPACT: Discover how to minimize the impact that produced water from mining operations has on water quality and biodiversity.
REGULATORY COMPLIANCE: Hear from key regulators including the EPA on future regulatory strategies specific to water management in the mining industry and the commercial impact this will have on mining companies.
WATER MEASUREMENT & REPORTING: Determine the optimal methods and metrics for measuring, monitoring, accounting for and reporting water usage in mining production to ensure regulatory compliance.
CLIMATE CHANGE & WATER SCARCITY: Find out the long-term trends on how climate change and water scarcity will impact mining operations and strategies for mitigating this impact.
WATER MANAGEMENT TECHNOLOGY: Hear case studies evaluating cutting edge technologies including cost-effective recycling technologies specific to the mining industry.
GROUNDWATER MODELING: Understand best practice strategies and methodologies for groundwater modeling in mining operations.
