Welcome to the newly constructed home page of the
International Mineral Processing Congress. The IMPC Council has
great pleasure in launching this web site in the interests of promoting
greater communication between mineral processors worldwide. It is
well known to all of us that mining is playing an ever-more important
role in promoting the current global economic growth. However at
the same time the industry continues to be challenged to address
critical issues such as global warming, climate change, greenhouse
gas emissions, the disjunction between energy demand and supply,
the perennial shortage of water especially in many major mining
countries, the shortage of appropriate skills, etc.
It is fitting for the International Mineral Processing community
to play an increasingly pro-active role in addressing these major
technical and social challenges. It is hoped that, with time, this
web site will become a significant provider of key information not
only for mineral processing engineers but also for policy makers,
the investment community and other sectors with an interest in the
mining and mineral processing industry.
To all potential host countries of XXVII Congress that will take place in 2015.
