About SAEMC
(South Australian Exploration and Mining Conference)

The South Australian Exploration and Mining Conference (SAEMC) has been held annually near the end of the year (last Friday in November or first Friday in December) since 2004. It is designed to provide an opportunity for active SA mineral explorers and miners to present succinct technical updates to their peers of activities on their flagship mines and exploration projects. Participants will gain a comprehensive appreciation of the diverse activities in the State and gain ideas from each other which will collectively improve the State’s chances of mineral discovery and improved mining developments.

The conference is organised by a voluntary committee representing the local branches of professional associations (AIG, ASEG, AusIMM, GSA & SACOME). Representatives from PIRSA and the University of Adelaide have also joined the committee.

The Conference registration fees are kept low to encourage a broad attendance and the modest profits are intended to be invested in student-related activities in the local professional associations.
