| Description |
Aim
The aim of this workshop is to provide a forum for the world's leading scientific and technical communities to interact and address the main issues and the key challenges of the mining and civil construction industry in the beginning of the 21st century in order to reduce its environmental and health impacts, life cycle assessment, risk analysis, hazard detection and control, environmental and health consequences and liability, waste management, monitoring and projection techniques, geotechnical issues, propabilistic modelling, geoenvironmental engineering, dam and embankment design and case studies.
Who should attend
Geotechnical companies, mining companies, government agencies, the environmental community, the investment community, research and development organizations and academic institutions.
Language
The official language of the conference will be English. There will be simultaneous interpretation to/from Greek.
