Introduction:
The SAIMM is proud to announce its 3rd conference around the topic of Tailings. Since the inaugural conference, which raised the profile of tailings and encouraged collaboration between the various role players in the tailings industry, and the 2nd conference, which focused on embracing the Global Industry Standard on Tailings Management (GISTM), there has been much progress. Progress in terms of a better understanding of the requirements and implications of the GISTM, progress in terms of improved geotechnical understanding of how tailings dams work, progress in terms of involving stakeholders and progress in terms of working towards improved safety performance through compliance with the GISTM.
