About Forum

Established in 2005 in Russia Minex Mining & Exploration Forum has become the largest in the CIS mining industry event which provides in the format of an international forum and exhibition a regular platform for technical and investment dialogue between local and international mining communities.

Minex Central Asia Forum and Expo will become a key annual Mining event for Kazakhstan and Central Asian Region. The general objective of this forum is to illustrate and promote emerging investment opportunities in the Mining Sector of Kazakhstan and Central Asian republics. The forum also aims to provide companies with information about key business / technical / investment and financial factors which will assist them in managing their exploration and mining businesses in Central Asia.

Typically, at other Minex Forums, we have included sessions on:

Economic and regulatory trends effecting mining business
Inward and Outward mining investments
Key requirements for raising international finance (debt or equity)
Discussion on trends for resource-reserve reporting
Ways to optimise projects
Legal / accounting issues
Environmental issues
