Background of the IMWA 2010 Symposium
The International Mine Water Association is a multidisciplinary organization comprised of experts from various branches of natural sciences and technology. It was founded in 1979 in Granada/Spain as a result of interest shown in the increasing problems associated with water management in the mining industry. With growing emphasis on the environmental and economic ramifications of water management, IMWA has become recognized as a pre-eminent forum for international discussion, exploration of issues, and exchange of expertise in the field of mine water management and remediation techniques. Currently, IMWA has 480 individual members from all continents and 30 corporate members.
The IMWA 2010 Symposium is jointly hosted by the International Mine Water Association (IMWA) and Cape Breton University (CBU). This conference will enable persons from around the world who have an interest in mine water management to learn first hand how 21st century mine water challenges are being tackled. Delegates will enjoy a first-class technical program that will address pertinent and exciting information in the field of mine water management and as always, there will be ample opportunity to exchange ideas and best practices with colleagues from around the world.
