Slope Stability X26 Conference & Expo
This article has been supplied.
10–11 September 2026 | The Garden Venue, Northriding, Johannesburg, South Africa
Prevent the Next Slope Failure Before It Happens
Every major slope failure tells the same story: the warning signs existed, but critical gaps between geology, engineering, operations, monitoring, and decision-making allowed risk to escalate.
The cost is enormous—production downtime, infrastructure damage, environmental impact, safety incidents, regulatory scrutiny, and millions in avoidable losses.
Slope Stability X26 is where the mining industry comes together to close those gaps.
Join Southern Africa's leading geotechnical professionals, mining engineers, geologists, mine planners, operations leaders, tailings specialists, technology providers, regulators, and consultants for two days of practical learning, real-world case studies, and innovative solutions that improve slope performance and reduce operational risk.
