Adoption and Application of UNFC
in Mining Sector.
The UNFC as a universal classification tool, How to achieve it?

What is UNFC ?
Who is concerned by the application of UNFC ?
How to convince, popularize and adopt the UNFC ?
Who should be in charge to promoting UNFC ?
What strategy for promoting UNFC ?
“The best way to promote a product is to target a young population.
At medium and long terms, In the case of UNFC, the student community in
geosciences field is a target prevailing for its promotion. The student destined to
become an Engineer and / or a Manager, for him the UNFC as a classification tool is
already among his competences”. To meditate
Questions for discussions :

Patience, over time, you will certainly reach your Goal’’
