It takes place at The Westin Westminster in Westminster, Colorado.

The audience includes engineers, scientists, regulators, and industry leaders.

It is worth it for geotechnical and environmental engineers, regulators and mine waste managers, since the series dates to 1978 and is run through Colorado State University with the University of British Columbia and the University of Alberta. Professionals outside tailings and mine waste, or those seeking a broad mining expo with large equipment exhibits, would get less from a topic-specific technical conference.

Engineers and regulators at academic-linked mining conferences usually wear business casual, such as khakis and collared shirts or sweaters. A warm layer is useful for a November stay at The Westin Westminster in Colorado.
