Seminars are excellent opportunities to discuss a mining or career-related topic in a friendly and open environment with other WIM (UK)members. We also publish a short report on each seminar so that all members can be kept updated of the presentations and discussions at these events. You can find reports on these and other WIM (UK) seminars in our Archive.
