The mining industry has in the time since the last Large Open Pit Mining Conference seen boom times, the global financial crisis, depressed commodity prices, redundancies and tight time, an apparent emerging return to boom times, significant innovations and advancements in technology and application within the industry and a significant threat to the Australian mining industry through the lack of understanding of the financing of mining projects and the real effect of a proposed taxation change. Western Australia and the mining industry appear to be accused of recovering and advancing too fast for some other areas (of Australia) and in some people’s eyes. All of these issues promote active discussion and the papers in these proceedings, held on July 27-28, 2010 in Perth, Western Australia, will address some of these and beyond and promote active discussion and ideas for future improvements.
