Co-organised by the UBM Asia company and the Vietnam Chamber of Commerce and Industry’s Vietnam Exhibition Services Company Ltd, the biennial event took place for the first time in 2012 and has become a bridge connecting domestic and foreign firms and diversifying advanced technologies and equipment.

The three-day exhibition attracts more than 137 enterprises from 18 countries and territories, including the UK, Czech Republic, Germany, Singapore, China and Australia. They displayed equipment, machinery and technologies used for mining on a site of 4,000 sq.m.

During the event, three seminars will gather prestigious speakers to discuss breakthroughs and sustainability of mining, progresses in mining and underground works, and use of modern technology in mining and management. They will also talk about restoration of mineral resources and environment protection.

Asia Miner, one of Australia’s well-known magazines specialising in mining and exploitation of mineral resources, will be also present. It will continue partnering with Vietnam in the Regional Technical Conference Vietnam 2018 with speakers from major foreign firms taking part.

Participants will also discuss measures to improve mining output and safety standards in the field.
