Global demand for mining resources is predicted to soar, but where the relative investment will come from is unclear, and although this sector is critical in the transition, it continues to struggle when it comes to sustainability credentials 

  • How can we work together to create and maintain a mining industry that meets the needs of the energy transition and social sustainability? 
  • In a sector that involves a long term investment and a long-term risk, how can investor confidence be boosted?
  • There has been an uptick in localisation of metals supply, such as Indonesia banning exports of nickel ore. How is this affecting wider global supply chains?
