Mining industry players, burned by a collapse after several years of booming markets, have survived tremendous price volatility over the past year. Confidence is returning and the challenges of the past year are becoming the opportunities for the next stage of growth.

Government stimulus spending has led to a general improvement in demand, as has restocking by major economies like China. Such emerging economies are a growing feature of the global mining industry. One third of the world’s Top 100 mining stocks, measured by value, now hail from China, India and Indonesia.

As with the previous Mining Asia Congress, the 2010 event will bring together the best and brightest minds in the industry worldwide to take part in the investment & technical program. Under the theme “Growth and Emerging Mining Economies”. The Mining and Asia Focus will focuses on the specific Investment issues and technological needs of the Asia mining arena. The 2010 event will gather Industry professionals from throughout the mining centers of the Asia-Pacific area – including India,
Indonesia, China, Russia, Kazakhstan, Vietnam, Australia and other emerging mining power all over the world.
