As distinct from mining conferences as such, which are generally day-long and have a full-fledged programme dealing with a general theme, Omega’s mining presentations are half-day events offering the five or six presenters an opportunity to specifically promote their company or mining project to a selected audience where interest is guaranteed.

Participants at the London event on 24^th June 2003 included:

• The New Mining Code in the DRC
  Christophe Asselineau, Simmons & Simmons                                           

• Overview of Metorex
  Simon Malone , Metorex Group                                                            

• Enhanced Client Profitability Through Partnership
  Pierre Fourie, Lower Quartile Solutions

• Gold in Europe
  Damien Reynolds, Tournigan Gold Corporation                                  

• UK Mining: Geopolitics, Structures and Strategies
  Jack Jones, CIBC World Markets                                                           

• Long Term Forecast for Gold
  Bruce Alway, Gold Fields Mineral Services Ltd                                     

The event was hosted by Simmons & Simmons who offered superb facilities and an excellent lunch.  The conference itself went off without a glitch and the general response was that the organisers had brought together just the right blend of speaker and delegate for the initiative.  The turnout of approximately 50 delegates was in line with expectations for these events in London.  What is important, was that these were well targeted and therefore persons with a serious interest.  Audience participation in the question and answer sessions was keen and of a high standard.  The presentations were, without exception, a credit to their companies.  Several of those present expressed interest in Omega’s forthcoming mining conferences / workshops in Singapore, Shanghai, Hong Kong and Dubai.
