As Africa’s mining and infrastructure sectors face increasing pressure to deliver more with less by using faster discoveries, better data utilisation and more responsible resource management, technology is becoming central to the conversation. Against this backdrop, Seequent Day Johannesburg, taking place on 25 June 2026, is set to bring together geoscience professionals, industry leaders and technology experts for a full day of insight, collaboration and practical learning.
The event offers a unique platform for professionals across mining, environmental consulting and geoscience to explore how digital tools are transforming subsurface understanding and decision-making. At its core, Seequent Day is about unlocking value from data. From exploration through to production and environmental management, the ability to visualise, model and interpret complex geological information is becoming a key differentiator. The event will showcase how leading organisations across Africa are using advanced geoscience software to solve real-world challenges, improve efficiency and drive better technical and business outcomes.
The morning session will focus on lived industry experience, with users and experts sharing practical case studies on how they are tackling geological complexity, streamlining workflows and making more informed decisions. These peer-led insights provide attendees with tangible examples of how digital transformation is being applied on the ground, offering lessons that can be directly translated into their own operations. In the afternoon, attention shifts to innovation and capability. Seequent experts will present the latest updates to key platforms such as Leapfrog Geo and Oasis montaj, highlighting new features, enhancements and what they mean for day-to-day work. The focus is not just on what is new but on how these tools can help professionals work faster, model with greater confidence and extract deeper insights from subsurface data.
Beyond the technical content, Seequent Day Johannesburg also speaks to a broader industry shift. As Africa positions itself within the global energy transition and critical minerals value chain, there is a growing need for smarter, data-driven approaches that support both competitiveness and responsible mining practices. Events such as this play a key role in building the skills, networks and knowledge required to meet that demand. The programme reflects this diversity of perspectives, featuring contributions from across industry, academia and consulting. Speakers include representatives from Botswana Minerals, the Council for Geoscience, African Rainbow Minerals, Anglo American, the University of the Witwatersrand, leading advisory and technology firms.
A high-level industry panel discussion will further explore emerging trends, challenges and opportunities shaping the sector. The event is designed to be highly interactive. With dedicated networking sessions throughout the day, attendees will have the opportunity to connect with peers, exchange ideas and build relationships that extend beyond the event itself. For early-career professionals and established experts alike, this creates space for knowledge-sharing and collaboration in an evolving industry.
Seequent Day Johannesburg is accessible to a wide range of professionals, reinforcing the importance of inclusive knowledge-sharing as the industry evolves. Whether attendees are looking to stay at the forefront of geoscience technology, gain practical insights or expand their professional networks, the event presents a compelling opportunity. As digital transformation accelerates across the mining value chain, the ability to harness data effectively will define future success. Seequent Day Johannesburg positions itself at the intersection of technology, expertise and industry need, making it a must-attend event for anyone involved in shaping the future of geoscience in Africa.
