The Future Minerals Forum 2025 will provide more opportunities than ever before to hear from a host of eminent and illustrious names. These will represent the metals and minerals industry as well as contributors from the governmental, investment, multilateral and NGO sectors.
They will discuss the importance of minerals and metals to solving some of the planet’s biggestchallenges. They will also analyse the great opportunities the super region represents as a largely untapped source of critical minerals and reflect, frankly and genuinely, the issues that the minerals industry needs to address to succeed – predominantly sustainability and how to maximize the contribution minerals can make to society.
