Rocking the Future: The Resources needed to get us there.
Dates:27-28th June, 2024 – Conference – Ballarat Goods Shed Dates: plus 26th June, 2024 – workshops, tours and events program
Geosciences’ role in the future is both spectacular and daunting! From dominating the export economy to navigating the fast-changing demands to support transition, and the expectations of more effective and more sustainable techniques, technology and research, geosciences are essential. Resources – geological, human, scientific, services – and their pathway forward are the key to understanding how Victoria will contribute to the demands on geosciences going forward.
AIG’s Victorian minerals Round-up conference – a highlight in the Victorian geoscience calendar – digs the dirt on Victoria’s geoscience sector:
showcasing technical updates on emerging and established Victorian projects and commodities,
providing insights into best practice, research and technology,
highlighting the resources required to deliver Victorias resource future, and
bringing the rocks along – with a significant core display of Victorian projects.
The AIG Round-up 2024 will include a day of workshops and geo-events on the day prior to the conference, an unparalleled opportunity to network with the geoscientists who are Rocking Victoria’s Future.
