“The RIU Explorers Conference has earned a reputation as a major Australian forum for the exploration and mining resources sector,” event hosts wrote on their RIU Conferences website in the build-up to the event.
Last year’s event attracted the largest number of attendees in the event’s history.
HotCopper was again among them all, speaking to established and up-and-coming companies about their future plans and many projects.
