The Mining Journal Outstanding Achievements Awards Dinner aims to reward excellence, determination and bravery in the mining industry over the previous 12 months.

Nominations come from around the globe, the winner is picked out by a panel of industry experts, and the award is presented at what is one of the most prestigious nights in the industry calendar. Over 1,000 top executives in the world of mining and finance will attend, and it is most definitely an event not to be missed.

Joining us this year as our guest speaker and to present the awards is comedian Dominic Holland. He has been doing stand-up comedy since 1991, and is one of the most regarded comedians of his generation. The Sunday Times described Dominic as “The UK’s master of observational comedy” and the The Daily Telegraph noted that “he is a top-notch stand-up who everyone should see”.
