The conference allows for exchange of experience by the representatives of science and mining practitioners. It brings great educational and development value which is hard to overestimate.

– In the papers presented so far speakers talked about the achievements and exciting scientific and engineering solutions in global mining which may pave the way for further ideas. In addition, the cooperation with the conference partner, National Hydraulics and Pneumatics Research Institute in Bucharest, brought a broader and more practical dimension to this exchange of experience - assessed Aldona Urbanek from JSW Szkolenie i Górnictwo.

Specialists not only from Bucharest but also from Polish universities and scientific institutes, as well as from technical departments of companies implementing state-of-the-art systems, presented 20 papers today. The speakers paid special attention to topics associated with development and investments increasing employee safety.
