In September 2025, Asia Pacific’s International Mining Exhibition (AIMEX) will make the landmark move to South Australia, for the first time in the event’s history.
The move to South Australia represents the next phase in the resources sector, with the state leading the charge in responsible exploration to unlock minerals. Additionally, South Australia’s extensive renewable energy network and significant investment in hydrogen projects to power green steel and future energy solutions help distinguish it from other markets.
Underscoring the importance of this, for the first time in the event’s history, AIMEX will heavily integrate energy, exploring the undeniable synergy between the mining industry and the energy sector.
As the deadline for net zero approaches and the energy transition in the resources sector accelerates, renewables like hydrogen are expected to play a large role in reducing emissions in hard-to-abate sectors, including iron and steel production.
South Australia has attracted billions of dollars of investment in large-scale renewable energy and storage projects to date, with billions more in the pipeline.
The role of renewable energy in the mining industry is becoming more prevalent, with new technologies, initiatives and projects contributing to the energy transition.
Prime Creative Media CEO John Murphy said that with these significant developments and the growth of the South Australia resources industry, relocating the event to South Australia was an obvious strategic choice.
“There’s no denying that there’s a link between the mining industry and renewable energy,” he said. “South Australia is a world leader in renewables and the global transformation economy and we’re proud to partner with the state to showcase the world-class change the resources sector is driving.”
