All in at Minexpo Over 58,000 attend Las Vegas mining equipment tradeshow

摘要

Despite a cooling metals market and uninspiring economic forecasts, Minexpo in Las Vegas was an oasis of optimism for the global mining industry. This year's event, the largest the National Mining Association has ever hosted, packed over 1,800 companies into 80,000 square metres of exhibit space, both inside and outside the Las Vegas Convention Center. Since 2008, when the event was last held, organizers expanded to a third exhibition hall, representing a 40 per cent growth of floor space.
