Life-of-Mine 2018 was held from 25-27 July in Brisbane, Queensland. The fourth event in this highly topical series, it focused on five primary themes: incorporating societal and community factors into design and operation; integrating mine planning and processing for environmental performance; strategies and planning for improving rehabilitation outcomes; innovation for delivering better sustainability outcomes; and influences of global trends on the future of the industry.
