MANAGING RISK IN THE
MINING SECTOR:
PRACTICAL STRATEGIES FOR SUCCESSFUL OUTCOMES
COURSE LEADERS
Doug Bryce, Partner, Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP
Jeremy Fraiberg, Partner, Osler, Hoskin & Harcourt LLP
The mining sector has always faced its share of challenges. In the past couple of years,
weakness in commodity prices combined with operational challenges have resulted in
a downturn in market sentiment towards the sector and contributed to a challenging
environment in which to raise new capital. At the same time, stakeholder engagement
has become more robust and co-ordinated. Operating successfully in this environment
requires vigilance, experience and expertise, as well as staying on top of ongoing
developments in a variety of areas.
This conference will highlight developments and strategies relating to many of the
key risk areas facing mining companies in today's environment, including the mine
permitting and project approval process; aboriginal risks; compliance with foreign
corrupt practices and anti-bribery legislation; class action and shareholder litigation
issues; risks in the transaction context; and foreign investment in Canadian mining
projects. This course is aimed at industry participants and corporate counsel that are
looking for up to date guidance on best practices and practical strategies for managing
risks in a complex industry environment.
