The Convention being held in the garden city Bangalore, the capital of

Karnataka State, is one of Indias most charming cities. Founded in 1537

by a local Chieftain Kempe Gowda, Bangalore has changed

dramatically over the years. His son Kempe Gowda II built the famous

towers at the four corners of the old city. In 1638, Shahaji Bhonsle, the

father of Shivaji captured the city. In 1687 Aurangzebs army captured

the city and sold it to the Wodeyars for a paltry sum of 3 lakhs. In 1759, he

built the famous Lal Bagh, one of Bangalores most beautifully laid out

gardens. There are numerous not-to-be-missed sights in Bangalore like

the magnificent Vidhana Soudha, sprawling Cubbon Park, Colourful

Lalbagh etc. Adjoining it are the government museum and the industrial

and technological museum. Today, it is Indias 5th largest city, themomentum of its industrial, commercial and IT growth is unequalled in the

country.

It is a city for all seasons. Come any time of the year Bangalore is

beautiful. The uniqueness of Bangalore can be attributed to the open

mind progressive nature of its citizens. The weather is the citys best

feature, with pleasant summers and bearable winters. Bangalore has a

moderate climate throughout the year due to its elevation. It is also

blessed with a large number of lakes and parks within the city. The venue

will be the Bangalore International Exhibition Centre (BIEC) Karnataka.

Tropical cloths are required throughout the year. Light woolens can be

worn during winter season.

LocationIndia is endowed with large mineral resources, especially iron ore, bauxite,

coal, base metals, noble metals and diamonds. However, most of these

resources are either underexplored or under exploited or both, for a

variety of reasons. For achieving a high manufacturing growth rate as

envisaged in the New Manufacturing Policy, the mining sector has to

grow faster, and has to make higher contribution to GDP. To achieve

these ambitious objectives, entire value chain of the mineral sector

starting from reconnaissance, exploration, mining and beneficiation to the

value addition downstream sectors have to be streamlined so as to

attract investments from both domestic as well as international investors,

particularly in strategic and deep seated minerals requiring state-of-the-

art technologies and risk capital. Regulatory mechanism has to improve

to facilitate such investments and accelerated implementation. All these

developments need to happen in a Sustainable Development Framework

so as to ensure inclusive growth.

In order to attract investment and technology FIMI is organizing a three-

days Convention on Mining, Exploration Convention & Trade Show from

30 August - 1 September, 2012 at Bangalore International Exhibition

Centre (BIEC), Bangalore with the support of PDAC. The Ministry of Mines

has sponsored the Convention. The wil l provide a unique

opportunity for various stakeholders involved in the mining value chain

policy makers, exploration agencies, mining companies, regulatory

agencies, technologists, economists, investors including people from

abroad for intense deliberations and discussions.
