The SAIMM is proud to announce its upcoming 2026 conference on Tailings. Since the inaugural event, which raised the profile of tailings management and fostered collaboration among industry stakeholders, and the subsequent conference that focused on embracing the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management (GISTM), the field has seen significant progress. We’ve deepened our understanding of GISTM requirements, advanced geotechnical knowledge of tailings dams, engaged more stakeholders, and made strides toward improved safety through GISTM compliance. However, despite these achievements, tailings dam failures persist, signalling that there is still much work to be done and lessons to learn.

It is my great pleasure to welcome you to the 3rd International Online Conference on Mineral Science (IOCMS 2026), which will be held online from 10 to 12 March 2026. This event is proudly organized by the MDPI open access journal Minerals (ISSN: 2075-163X; Impact Factor: 2.2; CITESCORE: 4.4) and continues the successful tradition of the previous editions. The primary goal of IOCMS 2026 is to bring together researchers and professionals from across the globe working in the broad field of mineral sciences—from crystal chemistry to environmental mineralogy, from extreme condition physics to extraterrestrial mineral exploration. We aim to provide a vibrant and inclusive platform for the exchange of cutting-edge research, ideas, and collaborations.

Kick off 2026 with the first GMG Forum of the year – a dynamic, hands-on gathering where the global mining community comes together to collaborate, innovate, and shape the next phase of mining transformation. GMG’s Johannesburg Forum isn’t just another conference – it’s a working event where mining operators, OEMs, OTMs, technology providers, and researchers tackle real challenges, share lessons learned, and co-create solutions that make mining safer, smarter, and more sustainable.

With the continued pace of urbanisation, economic and population growth, the availability of space for necessary infrastructure in the urban environment is a major challenge. This, in conjunction with climate change and a focus on reducing impact on the environment, are the key factors driving the necessity and relevance of tunnelling. Tunnels are increasingly seen as a means to providing sustainable, safe and reliable transport, electricity, gas, water, sewage facilities and extraction of raw materials. Whilst the public and private sectors come to terms with the high capital expenditure required for tunnel construction, we live in an age of continued technological development and the application of these technologies presents an opportunity to better and more cost-effectively design, construct, and monitor tunnels. Furthermore, it is imperative that tunnelling consultants and contractors keep up to date with rapidly changing tunnelling technologies in order to remain viable in a competitive industry.

Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (SAIMM)

The South African metallurgical industry is facing significant obstacles: Rising production costs, the closure of key service providers like refractory suppliers, and increasing pressure globally for the industry to transform. To face these challenges, it is important for different areas of the industry to work together. The Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (SAIMM) invites you to the 2026 Pyrometallurgy International Conference, taking place from 25 to 29 May 2026. The conference will bring together professionals and experts from the fields of pyrometallurgy, furnace tapping, and refractories under the theme: Foundations of Competitiveness and Sustainability. This theme challenges us to collaborate in finding answers to the difficult questions we are faced with and to develop sustainable solutions to safeguard the future of our industry.

As the mining industry embraces increasingly complex mineral deposits and adapts to evolving ore grades, there is a growing opportunity to leverage innovation and advanced technologies to boost efficiency and sustainability. Dewatering systems stand at the heart of this transformation, playing a crucial role in optimising dewatering processes and enabling responsible tailings management. By enhancing thickener and filtration performance, mining operations can achieve greater productivity while meeting their environmental stewardship commitments. In recognition of these opportunities, this seminar will provide a comprehensive platform to explore cutting-edge technologies, share practical insights, and foster collaboration aimed at operational excellence and sustainability in mineral processing.

We would like to invite you to attend the XXXII International Mineral Processing Congress in Cape Town, South Africa from 18-22 October 2026. IMPC 2026 will be hosted by the Southern African Institute of Mining and Metallurgy (SAIMM). Mining is of great importance to Africa in general, and particularly to Southern Africa. Africa accounts for a major portion of the world's mineral reserves and more than half of gold, platinum group metals, cobalt and diamonds. Southern Africa produces over two-thirds of Africa's mineral exports by value.

We are pleased to be hosting Hoist & Haul 2027 in beautiful Cape town, South Africa. Mining is very much a global industry, with mining companies owning mines across the world. The large engineering companies and suppliers who provide design and equipment to the mines also operate internationally. So we hope to welcome delegates and accept technical papers from a wide spectrum of different countries. As the conference is being held in South Africa, we will also aim to highlight South African achievements in mine shaft hoisting, and technical visits will showcase excellence in current South African mining operations.
