About AGES
AGES is the Territory’s leading exploration-focused conference featuring presentations from the NT Geological Survey, its partners and the exploration industry. The program showcases new pre-competitive geoscience data and the latest minerals and energy exploration results from across the Territory, providing delegates with fresh ideas, practical insights and valuable networking opportunities.
The 2-day conference will be held in conjunction with the Mining Services Expo, coordinated by the Department of Trade, Business and Asian Relations.
