The ICARD community can finally meet face-to-face to discuss real issues and find innovative solutions around acid rock drainage and its impact on the environment. ICARD provides the opportunity for the mining industry, consultants, researchers, technology developers and suppliers, regulators, community and NGOs to communicate their perspectives on this important topic.
Supported by CIM, INAP and the Canadian Mine Environment Neutral Drainage (MEND) program, ICARD is planning an extensive technical event, with daily invited keynotes, short courses, field trips, trade exhibits, poster session, student program, numerous networking opportunities, a social and tourist program, and an exciting conference banquet at an amazing Halifax venue. The theme of ICARD 2024 is Impact. Innovation. Intelligence. The eyes (I’s) on the world theme reflect the approach the international community is taking to address acid rock drainage, bringing intelligence, to innovate for impact.
Sessions will cover topics such as Prediction/Geochemistry, Mine Closure, ML/ARD Mitigation, Water Management and Treatment, Guidelines and Regulations, just to name a few.
