Mining Publication: Rapporteur's Report: Mining Sector

• Communications
• Education and training
• Mining associations
• Mining types and methods

The general consensus from the members of the mining sector established the need for several key endeavors. More and stronger mining collaborations and partnerships need to be established among stakeholders, as well as the international mining community. Communication and marketing of PtD strategies, designs, and products should be improved. Regulatory agencies need to be involved early in the PtD process. And finally, there is a great need to educate mining stakeholders and students, from the undergraduate level and up, about the benefits of the PtD initiative.
