The Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (SAIMM), the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum (CIM) and the Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (AusIMM) will jointly convene a World Gold Conference every two years. In 2015 it will be held in Johannesburg, South Africa and hosted under the auspices of the SAIMM. Some important aspects of the current mining environment will provide opportunities and threats for the industry in the foreseeable future, which include:
- All-time high gold metal prices
- Economic slow down on opportunities for By- and Co-products from gold operations
- Minimal exploration success for the last 10 years and little immediate prospect for revolutionary success is leading to revisiting known ‘old’ (sub-marginal) deposits
- Lower precious metal content
- Increasing refractoriness
- More energy efficient mining and processing
