MINETECH

Technology, Digitalisation and Innovation is an essential part of the mining industry throughout the mining life cycle, from exploration, production to closure and post mining land use.

Mining companies are pursuing multiple methods to overcome challenges, lower costs, boost profits, improve production efficiencies, optimize mining operations, reduce environmental impact and workforce safety.

The Industry can leverage the use of advanced technologies, digitalization and innovative techniques to enhance productivity, exploration activities, maximize value and enable smart growth. With the need for change and adaptation recognized, the future will transform the commercial viability of mining projects.

The Event will showcase disruptive technologies within the mining sector and everything from renewable, innovative energy solutions, automation, AI, Blockchain, Big Data, Digital Transformation, IOT, Machine Learning, Robotics and Drones.

SUSTAINABLE MINING

The mining industry creates economic prosperity for the country, but poses substantial challenges and risks to the environment. With climate change at the heart of global policy, sustainable mining must be at the forefront of the industry.

The Event will focus on integrating sustainable development within the mining sector’s decision-making process and feature latest innovative solutions to ensure a minimal impact on the environment and surrounding communities.

MINREX is pleased to support the UN Sustainable Development Goals.

Economic Diversification

Recent reports and surveys of the region have estimated the value of its mineral reserves exceeding US$ 1 trillion. Opportunities of investments, exploration and productions are rapidly developing, considering the region’s diversification plans

Economic diversification is on the national agenda of many countries in the Middle East and developing the mining industry is a priority to diversify from an oil-based economy in order to achieve economic resilience.

Taking into consideration the vast potential in mining, key enablers and authorities involved in the transformation of the mining sector are making great strides towards developing their long-term mining strategy which will offer exciting opportunities in exploration and investment.
