The 2nd International Conference “Mining in Europe” took place in Aachen in June 2017. Professor Bernd Lottermoser as conference chair took again the opportunity to focus within the renowned Aachen International Mining Symposia (AIMS conference series) on the key issue Mining in Europe. Having attracted more than 200 participants from 22 countries, the two-day conference was an extraordinary success.

Professor Lottermoser and his staff of the Institute of Mineral Resources Engineering (MRE) are delighted with the conference’s outcomes and already look forward to the next AIMS conference: Starting a new conference series, the AIMS 2018 conference will be The 1st International Conference Mines of the Future taking place during 23-24 May 2018.
