Critical minerals are essential components in many of today’s fast-growing clean energy technologies, from wind turbines to electric vehicles. The increasing appetite and rapid pace of the transition to cleaner energy sources continues to drive the growth in demand for these minerals.

Following AusIMM’s inaugural Critical Minerals Conference in 2023, the 2024 event will move to Brisbane, where the conversation will continue around the significant role of mining as the world moves towards a greener, more sustainable future. Critical Minerals 2024 will attract key figures from across the critical minerals value chain worldwide.

The conference committee invites you to submit an abstract for presentation at AusIMM’s Critical Minerals Conference 2024.

The selection criteria includes relevance to the conference theme, accuracy and originality of ideas, significance of the contribution and quality of presentation.
