The Critical Minerals and Energy Investment Conference and Exhibition is Australia’s only event dedicated to the critical minerals sector discussing all aspects of exploration opportunities for traditional and emerging commodities, investment strategies, development of new technologies – from mobile phones to fighter jets, critical infrastructure, transport, security and renewable energy and expansion of downstream processing to meet future global demand.

Australia has been blessed with extraordinary reserves of the critical minerals and produces around half the world’s lithium, is the second-largest producer of cobalt and the fourth-largest producer of rare earths. The government has plans to grow Australia into a critical minerals powerhouse to support supply chain diversification and security of supply on a global scale.

Up to now, production has been concentrated in a few countries and is subject to disruptive geopolitical and market challenges, while rapidly rising demand could result in shortages. The event looks at key elements to responsible sourcing and processing, green investment economy, as well as hydrogen that plays a crucial role in the global energy market’s transition to a low-carbon economy.

For 2024, the Critical Minerals and Energy Investment Conference and Exhibition is being held in Brisbane and Perth, with an anticipated 250 senior level executives, including more than 25 mining companies ranging from explorers, juniors to mid-tier producers, majors and processors for two days of partnering, networking and business matching.
