Industrial Minerals Events is delighted to present their inaugural Chromite conference. This exciting two day event will cover all aspects of the chrome ore industry, from mine to market. The main focus will be on non-metallic grades, such as refractory, chemical and foundry but it will also be looking at metallic grades and pigments.
Taking place in South Africa means the key issues facing this market can be addressed; particularly power supply, logistics and future export quotas. However, this will be a truly international event, covering topics such as the Turkish supply and the opportunities and problems faced by foreign companies investing into South Africa.
Hear insightful presentations from key players including:
- Zelda du Preez, CEO, Rand York Minerals, South Africa
- Niell McEwan, Business Development and Project Manager, Vereeniging Refractories, South Africa
- Philip Garratt, Chief Executive Officer, Industrial Minerals Corp, USA
- Joe Howden, Marketing Director, Amcol Mauritius, Australia
- Taha Oksuzoglu, Vice President, Cihan Group, Turkey
Topics to be covered:
- Chromite – A critical raw material for the refractory manufacturer
- Investing in South African Chrome
- Comparing and contrasting the Turkish and South African markets
- Matching supply and demand – balancing the need for high grade non-metallic and metallic chrome ore
- Energy supply in South Africa – how it impacts on mining
