CME, its member companies and other key stakeholders gathered on the evening of Tuesday December 6 to celebrate another big year in mining and resources and look forward to 2023.
The crowd of more than 200 not only included important leaders from within the sector but also key government figures who regularly engage with our industry. Notable speakers on the night included WA Premier Mark McGowan, Federal Minister for Resources Madeleine King, WA Minister for Mines and Petroleum and Energy Bill Johnston, CME President Fiona Hick and CME CEO Rebecca Tomkinson.
All touched on the extremely significant contribution WA mining and resources makes to economies and communities around the State (and, indeed, across the country), while also reflecting on both the opportunities and challenges currently in front of our sector.
The venue for the event was the peaceful gardens of Lamont’s Bishops House, where guests were able to enjoy drinks and canapes as the sun set on a very pleasant day.
As these photos show, it was an excellent evening.
