23nd International Coal Congress and Exhibition of Turkey (ICCET 2024)

EYLÜL 2024

Dear Colleagues, Scientists, Distinguished Sector
Representatives and Industrialists;
We are pleased to invite you to the 23nd
International Coal Congress and Exhibition of Turkey
(ICCET 2024), which will be held in Zonguldak on
September 2024.
Considering that the hard coal was discovered by
Uzun Mehmet in Kestaneci village of Black Sea (Kdz.)
Ereğli on 8 November 1829, the history of the
Zonguldak basin dates back to 195 years ago. The
Turkish International Coal Congress has traditionally
been held every two years since 1978 in Zonguldak,
where Turkey's only hard coal reserves are located.
This congress, which started on a national scale, has
turned into an international organization that deals with
almost every aspect of coal mining and is attended by
miners from all over the world. Since its inception, 838
local and 103 foreign papers have been presented at
coal congresses.
Preparatory work for the 23nd International Coal
Congress of Turkey continues. In this congress, as in
the previous ones, the developments and problems
encountered in coal mining in the process from
exploration to consumption of coal will be discussed
with scientific data. Also; The "Mining Machinery and
Equipment Exhibition", where technological
developments in the sector will be exhibited, can be
visited during the congress.
We hope you will be able to attend to this important
event. Furthermore, you are invited to make technical
contributions to the Congress.
