The Gold Industry Group’s annual diversity events were back on the road in 2022 as Let’s Talk Diversity landed in Sydney and Melbourne for an East Coast perspective on the important issue of attracting Gen Z to the gold industry.
After a three-year hiatus due to COVID-19, more than 100 people converged at Sydney’s Untied Rooftop and Melbourne’s Smith Prahran to hear speakers from a range of backgrounds explore how the gold sector can secure an efficient, skilled, and suitably sized workforce of the future
The Gold Industry Group’s annual diversity events were back bigger than ever in 2022 for Let’s Talk Diversity, as a 250-person strong crowd flocked to the iconic Perth Mint to hear a collection of industry leaders, thinkers, and influencers discuss how gold mining can attract Gen Z to the industry.
The event was the first in a national series which will hit the road later this month in Sydney (November 29) and Melbourne (December 1) as the industry seeks an efficient, skilled, and suitably sized workforce for the future.
All that glittered was gold on Saturday night at the Kalgoorlie-Boulder Racing Club, as another year of graduates from the WA School of Mines were celebrated amongst 450 industry representatives at their annual Alumni Ball.
Traditionally held in Perth, hosting the ball for the first time in the Goldfields was the brainchild of the City of Kalgoorlie-Boulder’s Mayor John Bowler, who wished to align it with the City’s celebration of 125 years since gold was first discovered in the area.
