What a wonderful event.  The BOHOGS and BBUGS Suppliers Day keeps growing and getting stronger and 2015 was no exception.  Attendees from the mining companies, consultants, suppliers, contractors and researchers were all present to make the event happen. A big thank you to all presenters for making themselves available on the day and we wouldn’t be where we are without our sponsors supporting the Geotechnical Societies.

Presentations will be made available via the members section of the website in the coming days along with this years site visit presentations.  With 23 presentations available there was plenty of opportunity to learn. Further details can be found on the earlier website posts.
