About the Copper 99/Cobre 99 Conference



October 10-13, 1999 · COPPER 99/COBRE 99 · Phoenix, Arizona

Copper 99 was the fourth in a series of international conferences devoted to the mineral processing and extractive metallurgy of copper. The last event of this type to be held this century, the fourth conference was designed to herald the 21st century for everyone associated with the copper industry. The copper conference was organized by the Chilean Institute of Mining Engineers; the Metallurgical Society of the Canadian Institute of Mining (CIM); The Minerals, Metals & Materials Society (TMS); and sponsored by the Society for Mining, Metallurgy, and Exploration (SME).

Copper 99 took place from October 10-13, 1999, at the Pointe Hilton South Mountain Resort, in Phoenix, Arizona. Conference participants had an opportunity to gain insight into important worldwide technological advancements, potential new commercial developments, and challenges confronting the copper industry as it enters into the 21st century.

Copper 99 built on the success of three preceding conferences, Copper 87, held in Vina del Mar, Chile; Copper 91/Cobre 91, held in Ottawa, Canada; and Copper 95/Cobre 95, held in Santiago, Chile.
