GDS International Set to Tackle Top Mining Issues at the Next Generation Mining Australia Summit 2012

ADELAIDE, Australia, May 10, 2012 /PRNewswire/ --

On the 16-18^th of October 2012, a selection of senior executives from Australia's most prominent mining companies will settle into the Stamford Plaza Adelaide Hotel for two days to attend the most well respected event in the mining sector - the fourth Next Generation Mining Australia summit (NG Mining Summit). http://www.ngminingaustralia.com/

The NG Mining Summit will serve as an arena for C-level executives to meet, network, and assess the rapidly evolving topography of the mining industry in a lively, closed door environment. The summit has been specifically structured to cover contemporary, region-specific issues that are presented through a series of interactive workshops, roundtable discussions and moderated, peer-led panel discussions that give delegates the opportunity to meet with business analysts and solution providers to determine strategies and solutions for the year ahead and beyond.

Peter Allonby, General Manager for Eagle Downs Coal Management - Eagle Downs Coal Project, attended last year's summit. He found that the unique networking opportunities ensured the summit was a truly invaluable investment of his time and money and said: "The NG Mining summit has been a tremendous opportunity to mix and network with people from a variety of industries. The single biggest benefit for me has been the ability to interact with people from different parts of the resource industry that have had similar problems and issues."

Colin Ford, Business Development Manager of Wirtgen Australia, was another delegate in attendance at last year's event. He said: "As it was my first summit, I had really high expectations leading up to the event. I was not in any way disappointed. The organisation was world class and a credit to the team at NG Mining. All my meetings were very positive and I could not be happier with the outcomes."

The summit is set to provide the perfect environment for key decision makers to liaise and collaborate with their peers, discuss organisational strategies for the future and establish meaningful working relationships with a dynamic selection of delegates, vendors and sponsors. Offering an alternative to the traditional conference format, the summits provide true innovation and value for money.

Gina Perrin, NG Mining Australia Summit Director at GDS International, believes that the fourth NG Mining summit is poised to set the benchmark for future events in the industry, saying: "Last year's summit was a real success, and our fourth NG Mining summit is well positioned to exceed all expectations once again. Our apposite programme will be covering specific investment priorities and common pain points that are present in the industry today, such as recruitment and training issues, OH&S services and products, legislation, risk management and materials handling."

Perrin added "I'm really excited about the exceptional calibre of our delegation, and the cutting-edge programme that has been put together by our advisory board, the NG20. We have some real industry giants attending this year's event, who, along with our analyst partners and advisory board, guarantee that this summit will be the best the region has ever seen."
