Nick deals with many clients in the Energy & Resources space and hopes to give delegates a good base level understanding of the key income tax issues to think about when buying or selling a mining or petroleum tenement, doing a farm-out or tenement swap.
A regular presenter for the Institute, Nick says when he’s not knee deep in tax, enjoys sailing and snowboarding. He told us he is particularly looking forward to Oliver Mailes’s (Office of State Revenue) session at the event looking at Stamp Duty and Resources transactions.
Opening the event is Professor Sam Spearing (Curtin University). The Director of the WA School of Mines in Kalgoorlie, Sam has an array of experience in the Mining, Geotechnical and Engineering space. He has published two books and traveled to over 70 countries throughout his career.
