Upcoming Event

27-28 May 2015: Mineral Resources and Mine Development AIMS 2015 - 5th Anniversary

 

May 27, 2015 - May 28, 2015 | Aachen, Germany

 

Kármán-Auditorium

 

From 27 - 28 May 2015 about 350 experts from all over the world will discuss and present mining innovations in Aachen, Germany.

 

The Institute of Mining Engineering I (BBK I) of RWTH Aachen University is pleased to invite international experts from industry, research institutions and politics to submit abstracts of their presentations to the Fifth international symposium Mineral Resources and Mine Development.

 

Abstracts have to be sent to the symposium secretariat via the symposium website at http://www.aims.rwth-aachen.de before October 24th, 2014.

 

The Institute of Mining Engineering I at the RWTH Aachen University in Germany has been holding symposia on topics concerning mineral raw materials supply and mining for more than 25 years under the title Aachen International Mining Symposia. Since the first AIMS conference on Rockbolting in Mining in the year 1987, the Symposium has become a regular meeting of international mining and minerals experts.

 

Industrialized countries' economies heavily rely on the continuous supply of mineral raw materials. The mining sector world-wide has to improve the mining processes, the technology and the efficiency to cope with the increasing demand of the industrialized countries as well as the emerging markets. This goes hand in hand with addressing the global challenge of sustainable development in mining.

 

Consequently the Symposium on Mineral Resources and Mine Development focuses on two interacting thematic areas, mining processes and technology as well as sustainable development and supply of mineral resources.

 

Thus, the first thematic area of the Symposium MINE DEVELOPMENT focuses on the physical development of mining projects:/p>

 

*Mine Planning, Organization, Infrastructure and Logistics
*Continuous Mining Technologies for Hard-Rock Applications
*Machine Technology and Equipment
*Operational Experiences
*Backfill Operations
*Health and Safety in Mining
*Simulation of Mining Processes
*Communication and Information Technologies
*Mining Processes and Resource Efficiency

 

Additionally, the second thematic area of AIMS 2015 MINERAL RESOURCES focuses on sustainable development and supply of mineral resources and related topics:

 

*Mining Policies, Strategies and Concepts
*Mineral Resources Management and Supply Situation (incl. Critical Raw Materials)
*Legal Aspects, Permits and Financing
*Environmental Challenges and Approaches
*Views, Statements and Needs of Governments, Sectors and Enterprises

 

We expect approximately 350 delegates from all over the world, so you can look forward to meeting senior representatives and decision makers of governments, industry, research institutions, investment communities, suppliers of the minerals and mining industry and related fields. Against the background of the imperial city of Aachen, both the exhibition at the conference venue and the dinner party in the historical Aula Carolina will offer ample opportunity to make new contacts and renew old ones.

 

The AIMS 2015 Symposium will be sponsored by Becker Mining Systems AG. Euromines and RAG Aktiengesellschaft will be Cooperation Partners of the AIMS 2015 - Mineral Resources and Mine Development.

 

If you would like to take part at the Symposium as a member of the press with free participation or if you are interested to be a Media Partner to this event (including mutually beneficial promotional opportunity) just let us know in a short email.
