Background

Kick off 2026 with the first GMG Forum of the year – a dynamic, hands-on gathering where the global mining community comes together to collaborate, innovate, and shape the next phase of mining transformation.

GMG’s Johannesburg Forum isn’t just another conference – it’s a working event where mining operators, OEMs, OTMs, technology providers, and researchers tackle real challenges, share lessons learned, and co-create solutions that make mining safer, smarter, and more sustainable.

Themes

THEMES INCLUDE:

  • Driving a Low-Carbon Future – Real pathways to decarbonization and sustainable operations
  • Intelligent Mining – Turning data and AI into decisions that deliver real value
  • Safety & Resilience – How technology is transforming workforce safety and reliability
  • Underground Transformation – The future of automation and autonomy underground

This highly interactive forum blends case studies, panels, and open discussions focused on sharing lessons learned, exploring innovation, and co-creating the next steps in mining’s transformation.
