Future of Mining EMEA arrives in London with the focus on technology, development and sustainability

With over 200 professionals expected to be in attendance, it will cover a vast range of content spanning right across the entire mining life cycle with technology, automation, development and sustainability at its core. The focus will be on the challenges ahead as mining begins to look beyond the now and plan for the future.

The Future of Mining EMEA conference takes place at 8 Northumberland Avenue in London from 26-27 June with a strategic focused commercial and operational agenda connecting the industry across Europe, Middle East and Africa.


Speakers delivering on these topic areas include Daria Goncharova, Chief Sustainability Officer, Polymetal International PLC, Tom Bailey, Mine Manager - Tara Mines, Boliden, Terry Heymann, Chief Financial Officer, World Gold Council, Jon Wylie, Director Natural Resources, Proudfoot, and Arjen de Bruin, Managing Director OIM Operations Solutions, OIM.

With over 200 professionals expected to be in attendance, it will cover a vast range of content spanning right across the entire mining life cycle with technology, automation development and sustainability at its core. The agenda focuses on areas of development and the challenges ahead as mining begins to look beyond the now and plan for the future.

Key questions the conference will seek to answer include:

- Overcoming a Lack of Trust: Securing Social License to Operate:
What events drive society's views of mining?

- Adapting to Survive: How can Miners Integrate an Effective Digital Strategy into their Operations?
How do you manage digitisation when parts of a mining organisation are so different?

- Stronger Together: The Need for industry collaboration: Why do European miners take a more open approach to collaboration than miners in other regions?

- From Minecraft to Mineshaft: Engaging with the Next Generation of Talent
How real is the risk of falling short in the quest for new industry talent?

- Softening the blow of Automation: How great an impact will automation have on the existing mining workforce in EMEA?

The conference is well supported by solution providers including Proudfoot and OIM and for those who are interested in discussing new ideas, concepts and strategies; the Future of Mining is a great opportunity for those conversations and connections.

This brand new addition to the Future of Mining conference series builds upon the successful
Future of Mining Americas (Second edition in Denver , 21-22 October 2019) and the Future of Mining Australia (third edition taking place in Sydney 23-24 March 2020).

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

3D Vision: Ensenso B now also available as a mono version!

This compact 3D camera series combines a very short working distance, a large field of view and a high depth of field - perfect for bin picking applications. With its ability to capture multiple objects over a large area, it can help robots empty containers more efficiently. Now available from IDS Imaging Development Systems. In the color version of the Ensenso B, the stereo system is equipped with two RGB image sensors. This saves additional sensors and reduces installation space and hardware costs. Now, you can also choose your model to be equipped with two 5 MP mono sensors, achieving impressively high spatial precision. With enhanced sharpness and accuracy, you can tackle applications where absolute precision is essential. The great strength of the Ensenso B lies in the very precise detection of objects at close range. It offers a wide field of view and an impressively high depth of field. This means that the area in which an object is in focus is unusually large. At a distance of 30 centimetres between the camera and the object, the Z-accuracy is approx. 0.1 millimetres. The maximum working distance is 2 meters. This 3D camera series complies with protection class IP65/67 and is ideal for use in industrial environments.
