Tenement Talk

Navigating the Mining Industry when you’re not a geologist or engineer can be intimidating. Let’s fix that. Join this trio of industry professionals as they demystify the practical, legal and procedural minefields needed for obtaining and maintaining the key assets of every exploration and mining company. Dismantling the idea that tenement management is just an administrative ‘post box’ part of the process. Their years of industry experience mean there is no shortage of stories covering many topics including native title and cultural heritage, to the challenges of working across jurisdictions and working with 'other' recognised professionals. There will be discussions about current issues affecting the industry, including how best to deal with them and information on industry highlights, legislative and policy changes, upcoming events and so much more. Whether you're already an experienced tenement professional or you’ve wasted thousands of hours and dollars elsewhere trying to grasp these concepts with little success, you’ll find something of value here. Remember, Title is Vital and this trio won't let the truth get in the way of a good story!!
