The GEOMINE2024 program looks to the future of geoscience, mining, oil and gas in a global context. Themes will be addressed in opening and parallel sessions, special interest group meetings, workshops and discussion panels. The focus is on active participation, giving attendees opportunities to present and participate in important discussions on the major current and future issues and challenges geoscience, mining, oil and gas across the globe.

The separate parallel sessions will allow time for in-depth coverage of each subject area. Parallel Sessions will last about 2 hours and may include between 6 and 7 papers. To accommodate this some sessions will come together to hold joint sessions on topics of importance to two or more sessions.
