COAL USERS’ FORUM
INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIESThe New Zealand Minerals Investment Forum aims to bring together regional and international investors including financial institutions, private equity, high net worth individuals, sovereign wealth funds, national and international mining companies, government and other industry stakeholders. It will showcase the country’s existing players, geological prospectivity, and specific investment opportunities in the region.
COAL USERS’ FORUMThe sale of Solid Energy’s coal mines has re-shaped the commercial landscape in New Zealand for this important fuel. One dominant mining and logistics outfit has been replaced with healthy competition and in the South Island usage has grown amongst large industrials.
Regulators have been moving in different directions around particulate and sulphur emissions, and technology has been advancing too. Learn about this dynamic space and hear how coal users and the industry can craft their sustainability strategies while still using and promoting a valuable fuel.
MINE MANAGERS’ FORUMThis conference provides a dedicated forum for Senior Site Executives, Mine Managers and Certificate of Competence holders. The focus will be on mine management, a role that has taken on more responsibility in the modern mining environment but is open to budding mine managers and deputies.
Participants will be able to earn CPD hours across the whole conference and network with their peers. Important subjects that straddle coal, underground gold, opencast gold, alluvial, industrial minerals and scale aggregates will be discussed. These include health & safety, staff management, technology adoption and geotechnics.
SCALE AGGREGATES AND INDUSTRIAL MINERALSNew Zealand’s unique and growing industrial minerals operations continue to receive attention from inbound investors and overseas downstream markets. Increasingly, the challenges faced by the quarrying sector line up with those of the mining sector, particularly in the regulatory and stakeholder engagement spheres. And so do the opportunities around technology and innovation. This stream will feature some of the leaders in this space and include information on how the entire extractives sector can work together.
GALA DINNERJoin us for a highly memorable night at the spectacular Skyline Queenstown, with stunning 270 degree views over the Queenstown skyline and Lake Wakatipu. Starting with a gondola ride to the top, this picturesque venue will be a great setting for our guest MC to lead us through an exciting night, including the inaugural Mining Sector Awards, recognising excellence in the New Zealand minerals sector. The awards that will be presented on the night include; Health and Safety Programme Award, Innovation Award and Excellence in Environmental Management Award.
The gala dinner will have fine wine and food, entertainment and plenty of networking time.
Tickets can be purchased with registration.

4.10 WE NEED TO TALK
The easy days are gone. Increased competition for resources, whether it be minerals, land access, water or skilled staff, will only get harder. To address this, we need to up our game. Our industry needs to realise that what makes sense in a corporate setting does not always work in a community, and what looks good on a Gantt chart can fall to bits very quickly when people outside the mine gate with different aspirations, ideals and values become involved.
Kit Wilson - Senior Community Advisor, OceanaGold
4.35 NZP&M: EXCLUSIVE DATA RELEASE
The South Island is highly prospective for orogenic gold, as well as many other minerals. NZP&M has reserved areas of the South Island from prospecting while new pre-competitive data is acquired.

SCALE AGGREGATES AND INDUSTRIAL MINERALS
2.00 EXPANDING OUR INDUSTRIAL MINERALS SCOPE AND PROFITABILITY
Developing and commercialising New Zealand’s abundant industrial mineral resources requires not just geological and process expertise, but also the ability to tap into and educate/inform domestic and international markets. Driving home the most obvious or ‘easiest’ market isn’t necessarily the most lucrative. Creativity and an entrepreneurial approach in product and market development pays dividends.

4.10 WE NEED TO TALK
The easy days are gone. Increased competition for resources, whether it be minerals, land access, water or skilled staff, will only get harder. To address this, we need to up our game. Our industry needs to realise that what makes sense in a corporate setting does not always work in a community, and what looks good on a Gantt chart can fall to bits very quickly when people outside the mine gate with different aspirations, ideals and values become involved.
Kit Wilson - Senior Community Advisor, OceanaGold
4.35 NZP&M: EXCLUSIVE DATA RELEASE
The South Island is highly prospective for orogenic gold, as well as many other minerals. NZP&M has reserved areas of the South Island from prospecting while new pre-competitive data is acquired. This new data release provides new insights into the prospectivity of the region. NZP&M will announce new areas to be released for prospecting, and how to access the areas through exploration and prospecting permit applications.

INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIESThe New Zealand Minerals Investment Forum aims to bring together regional and international investors including financial institutions, private equity, high net worth individuals, sovereign wealth funds, national and international mining companies, government and other industry stakeholders. It will showcase the country’s existing players, geological prospectivity, and specific investment opportunities in the region.
COAL USERS’ FORUMThe sale of Solid Energy’s coal mines has re-shaped the commercial landscape in New Zealand for this important fuel. One dominant mining and logistics outfit has been replaced with healthy competition and in the South Island usage has grown amongst large industrials.
Regulators have been moving in different directions around particulate and sulphur emissions, and technology has been advancing too. Learn about this dynamic space and hear how coal users and the industry can craft their sustainability strategies while still using and promoting a valuable fuel.
MINE MANAGERS’ FORUMThis conference provides a dedicated forum for Senior Site Executives, Mine Managers and Certificate of Competence holders. The focus will be on mine management, a role that has taken on more responsibility in the modern mining environment but is open to budding mine managers and deputies.
Participants will be able to earn CPD hours across the whole conference and network with their peers. Important subjects that straddle coal, underground gold, opencast gold, alluvial, industrial minerals and scale aggregates will be discussed. These include health & safety, staff management, technology adoption and geotechnics.
SCALE AGGREGATES AND INDUSTRIAL MINERALSNew Zealand’s unique and growing industrial minerals operations continue to receive attention from inbound investors and overseas downstream markets. Increasingly, the challenges faced by the quarrying sector line up with those of the mining sector, particularly in the regulatory and stakeholder engagement spheres. And so do the opportunities around technology and innovation. This stream will feature some of the leaders in this space and include information on how the entire extractives sector can work together.
GALA DINNERJoin us for a highly memorable night at the spectacular Skyline Queenstown, with stunning 270 degree views over the Queenstown skyline and Lake Wakatipu. Starting with a gondola ride to the top, this picturesque venue will be a great setting for our guest MC to lead us through an exciting night, including the inaugural Mining Sector Awards, recognising excellence in the New Zealand minerals sector. The awards that will be presented on the night include; Health and Safety Programme Award, Innovation Award and Excellence in Environmental Management Award.
The gala dinner will have fine wine and food, entertainment and plenty of networking time.
Tickets can be purchased with registration.
