Aims

This conference aims to promote the adoption of a common reporting standard in the EU. Such an approach will contribute to the convergence of terminology and the comparability/compatibility of data, thus facilitating the creation of a solid European Knowledge Database on mineral resources and to the successful delivery of the RMI. Such harmonization is equally important to government policy‐makers and to companies within the minerals industry ‐ the users and the providers of data on mineral resources and reserves.

The conference provides a unique opportunity to learn about and discuss concrete steps regarding mineral reporting in a cross‐disciplinary environment, including EU policy makers, national government officials, academics, minerals company executives, finance and industry experts. 

Speakers

There will be presentations from speakers representing a range of relevant European policy areas linked to solid mineral raw materials, as well as from experts drawn from EU regulatory authorities (including those of Member States). There will also be contributions from representatives of financial investment companies, the mining industry and academia.
