Build Confidence. Improve Safety. Strengthen Performance.
Tailings Storage Facilities (TSFs) are among the most critical—and high-risk—structures on any mine site. When things go wrong, the consequences can be severe: from expensive remediation and reputational damage to the ultimate risk—loss of life.
The best line of defence? Well-trained personnel.
Join us for a full-day, hands-on training led by Wes Herweynen. Wes is a Technical Director – Tailings and Mine Waste with ten years of experience in research and consulting. His experience includes geotechnical analyses and design of tailings storage facilities, dam surveillance, geotechnical field investigations and construction quality control. He has been involved in projects in the USA, Australia, New Zealand, Indonesia, Laos, Brazil and Peru.
This practical training kicks off at paranaple Convention Centre with an interactive morning session, followed by an on-site visit to Hampshire for applied learning in the field. We’ll wrap up the day with the Welcome Reception at Island State Brewing, offering the chance to connect with peers and continue the conversation.
The training also promotes conversation and knowledge sharing between attendees, allowing sharing of operator experiences from across different mine sites.
