The International Mining and Resources Conference (IMARC) is where global mining leaders collaborate on trends in mining, investment and innovation towards a sustainable future.

As Australia’s largest and most influential mining event, IMARC creates a global conversation, mobilises the industry for collaboration, and attracts some of the greatest leaders in the mining, investment, and technology industries for three days of learning, deal-making and networking.

As industries across the world strive to achieve net zero targets, IMARC returns to the ICC Sydney from 31 October – 2 November 2023, examining the impact of the increasing demand for critical minerals on the mining value chain, as well as how organisations are operationalising their climate change commitments.

The Energy Transition Stream will specifically address various aspects of the industry’s role in the global energy transition, including powering mines with renewable energy sources, decarbonisation strategies, mine electrification and developing a critical minerals supply chain.

The ESG Collaboration Stream returns once again in 2023, providing a forum to address the key challenges in ensuring sustainable mining practices. As investors emphasise value, beyond the financials, and focus more on ESG compliance, this stream will feature in-depth case studies and discussions on topics including supply chain sustainability, energy, waste and water supply, community engagement, human rights, and more.

The ever-popular Digital Transformation and Mining Innovation streams will showcase some of the best applications of technology, innovation and modernisation across the business, including at a mine site and processing plant level. The conference program can be viewed here.

IMARC 2023 will also see us celebrate 10 years of IMARC and industry, giving us the perfect opportunity to reflect on the progress the industry has made, and the new directions that miners, METS, governments, and value chain partners are embarking on to prepare for the future. Keynote interviews and discussions within the IMARC Plenary will highlight C-level strategic and practical steps on such developments, and where to next as we focus on resourcing for tomorrow.

Discover inspiration and new ideas, find practical solutions, and see demonstrations of the latest products and innovations from start-ups through to some of the biggest names in the mining industry with more than 470 exhibitors throughout the 18,500m² expo floor all under the same roof.
