Aspermont Limited (ASX: ASP) will bring together more than 2,000 mining industry participants, including over 500 executives and 100 speakers, at its co-located Future of Mining Australia and MiningNews Select conferences in Perth on June 16-17, 2026. The events come at a time of significant transformation in the global resources sector, marked by resource nationalism, commodity supply pressures and accelerating automation.
The conferences will focus on key industry themes including technology and innovation, energy transition, sustainability and workforce development. Speakers will represent government, major mining companies, investment groups and technology organizations. Discussions will cover defense and critical minerals, connected mine automation, global mining policy developments and artificial intelligence adoption.
Dedicated programs include a start-up pitch competition, executive leadership roundtable and workforce development initiatives.
