Slope Stability Online Event

One of the world’s leading industry conferences, Slope Stability 2020 will provide a forum for open pit mining and civil engineering practitioners, consultants, researchers and suppliers worldwide to exchange views on best practice and state-of-the-art slope stability technologies. 

In light of the current situation, and in the best interest of public health and the global mining community, the ACG 2020 International Symposium on Slope Stability in Open Pit Mining and Civil Engineering will be delivered online. This symposium comprises more than 100 technical papers available electronically or as a printed book, as well as 94 quality presentations that will be pre-recorded and delivered online in May and available until 17 August 2020, on demand.
