Aspermont to Host Future of Mining Australia and MiningNews Select Conferences in June 2026

Aspermont Limited (ASX: ASP) announced it will host the co-located Future of Mining Australia and MiningNews Select conferences in Perth on June 16-17, 2026. The events are expected to draw more than 2,000 mining industry participants, including over 500 executives and 100 speakers, as the sector grapples with resource nationalism, commodity supply pressures, and accelerating automation.

The conferences will focus on key themes such as technology and innovation, energy transition, sustainability, and workforce development. Speakers from government, major mining companies, investment groups, and technology organizations will address topics including defense and critical minerals, connected mine automation, global mining policy developments, and artificial intelligence adoption. The agenda also includes a start-up pitch competition, an executive leadership roundtable, and workforce development initiatives.

These events are part of Aspermont's broader strategy to leverage its mining and energy media portfolio, which includes Mining Magazine, Australia’s Mining Monthly, MiningNews.net, and Energy News Bulletin. The conferences aim to address operational, strategic, and investment challenges facing the global resources sector, providing a platform for industry leaders to share insights and foster collaboration.

The timing of the conferences is critical, as the mining industry faces unprecedented challenges and opportunities.
