Seymartec Mining 2026: Technological Development, Efficiency and Digitalization of Mining Enterprises
The 2026 program focuses on the practical experience of existing mining and processing plants, mining companies, research institutes, design organizations and solution providers. Participants will consider real projects in mining, processing, digitalization, transport, infrastructure, asset management, industrial safety and processing of complex mineral raw materials.
1.The first day of the forum will open with a panel discussion on the competition between Russian manufacturers of mining equipment and suppliers from China. Manufacturers and suppliers of domestic processing equipment and reagents, companies working with equipment from China, suppliers of transport equipment, engineering and energy infrastructure were announced in the discussion. The discussion will be moderated by Mikhail Leskov, editor-in-chief of the Gold and Technology publication.
A separate block of the first day will be devoted to the technical implementation of key investment projects of the Russian mining and metallurgy industry of the last decade: from the concept and construction to technical difficulties and results. The programme includes reports on the projects of Mikhailovsky GOK named after A.V. Varichev, Dalur, Talnakh Concentrator of Norilsk Nickel, Tominsky GOK of the Russian Copper Company, Bystrinsky GOK, Kachkanarsky GOK of EVRAZ and other enterprises.
In parallel, a section on underground mining will be held. Among the topics are geological exploration technologies, geomechanics and geophysics, methods of maintaining mined-out space, power supply of underground substations and dewatering plants, backfilling of mined-out space, the use of mining and geological information systems and the digital continuity of investment projects.
2. On the second day of the forum, the key focus will be on the digitalization of the mining industry, transport and beneficiation. The program includes reports by Polymetal on the automated dispatching system for open-pit mining, ALROSA and the Mining Institute of FRC KSC RAS on import substitution of medium-term planning systems, as well as solutions for the digitalization of industrial construction, automation, management of the mining and transport complex and digital projects in the mining industry.
The transport unit will combine the topics of optimization of quarry transport, development of railway infrastructure, industrial logistics, mainline conveyor transport, robotic transport in quarries and the selection of models of mining dump trucks. Among the announced participants and speakers are Fork IT, AkonsTrans, Gazpromneft-Supply, TEP-Engineering, NTC-Geotechnology, Nosov Moscow State Technical University and others.
A separate line of the program is devoted to ore preparation, flotation, magnetic separation and other beneficiation methods. Reports from the Mining Institute of FRC KSC RAS, EVRAZ, Mekhanobr Engineering, Flotent Chemicals Rus, ALROSA, Magnezit Group, Norilsk Nickel and other participants will be presented. Topics include improving the quality of raw materials, optimizing ball loading, flotation methods for mining and chemical and rare metal raw materials, reagents, XRT beneficiation, collective selective flotation and machine learning in iron ore beneficiation management.
3. The third day of the forum will be devoted to gold mining, processing of refractory ores, tailings and water management, engineering infrastructure and asset management of the mine. The program includes reports on the technology of gold production from double-refractory ores, nitric acid leaching, processing of carbonaceous gold-bearing concentrates, minimization of environmental risks during the processing of arsenic-containing ores, as well as production by in-situ leaching.
In the tailings and water management blocks, issues of groundwater management, processing of loparite tailings, environmentally balanced development of deposits, thickening, filtration, drying, treatment of mine water and management of technogenic georesources will be considered. Among the announced participants are Tingidis, the Mining Institute of FRC KSC RAS, RCC, STC-Geotechnology, HAUS Rus, TPU and others.
The program will be completed by the section on asset management of the mining enterprise and the engineering infrastructure of the mining and processing plant. Among the topics are energy-efficient electric motors, mobile autonomous platforms for confined spaces of the mining and metallurgical complex, mine water treatment and the formation of a system of regulated repair maintenance in the GOK division.
More than 300 delegates, more than 120 mining enterprises and more than 200 chief miners, concentrators and engineers are expected to participate. The program includes more than 90 reports, three days of business communication, specialized sections and meetings with technical managers, mining and metallurgy specialists, scientific organizations, design institutes and suppliers of solutions for mining production.
Seymartec Mining 2026 will be useful for managers and specialists who are responsible for mining, beneficiation, transport, digitalization, design, industrial safety, engineering infrastructure, equipment reliability and improving the efficiency of mining and processing plants.
