Palmer to deliver keynote address at 2012 North Queensland Mining, Processing and Energy Conference
One of Australia's most influential and dynamic mining executives will deliver a keynote address to more than 200 industry delegates at the second annual North Queensland Mining, Processing and Energy Conference (NQ-MPEC).

Professor Clive Palmer's attendance, announced today for the May 14 and 15 forum, will ensure national attention to what is shaping up as one of the year's most influential meetings of industry leaders.

Event organiser Sean Dalton said: "We're delighted to welcome Prof. Palmer. While our speaker list already comprises an impressive array of industry heavyweights – who will no doubt discuss the trending issues facing the resource sector – Prof. Palmer's contribution solidifies NQ-MPEC's position as the must-attend event for the industry in 2012.

"Prof. Palmer has always been outspoken on industry change and we hope that he will help to encourage greater dialogue about the issues faced by North Queensland's mining, processing and energy industries," said Mr Dalton.

NQ-MPEC is the only Conference of its kind held in North Queensland and in 2012 will focus on Future Visions and a Snapshot of Today. The Conference will give industry delegates the chance to hear directly from senior executives and industry leaders in the heart of Queensland's mining region.

Other speakers confirmed for the event include representatives from Queensland Nickel, Sun Metals, Xstrata, Metallica Minerals, Sucrogen, the Queensland Resource Council, Osmoflo, Townsville Enterprise, the Port of Townsville and more. Trevor Goldstone, Director of Business Development and Operations at James Cook University, will be the Master of Ceremonies for the two-day event.

Australian Professional Conferences and Seminars will run the high-profile event in Townsville. Mr Dalton said: "APCS is thrilled with the high calibre of speakers and we look forward to delivering an event that goes above and beyond the high expectations set by last year's inaugural conference."
