The only Australian critical minerals conference to bring together miners, explorers, processors, financiers, innovators and governments, Paydirt’s Critical Battery Minerals Conference has grown to become a vital meeting point for any stakeholder striving to increase critical mineral supply chain resilience.
With the supply of key ingredients scarce or controlled by just a few players, governments and major car manufacturers are anxiously looking for new sources of critical materials to bolster their fragile supply of everything from lithium and copper, to rare earths and antimony.
Paydirt’s Critical Battery Minerals Conference will explore the future of the sector, from upstream projects to downstream investments.
After an erratic few years, demand for major critical minerals such as lithium and rare earths is on the increase but identifying the best projects in these complex commodities is still challenging.
The conference will aim to provide clarity on such issues, serving as a melting pot for the battery minerals sector, involving in-depth discussions on market outlooks, project developments, and the future of the global battery industry and technology.
The conference will provide a platform for junior miners to showcase their battery minerals projects to investors looking to take advantage of the EV revolution, whether they are shareholders, corporates or government agencies.
This event will also feature unparalleled insight into how the vagaries of the lithium-ion battery supply chain and how technological developments are likely to influence future demand for batteries and their component commodities.
The next edition will be held in 21- 22 April 2026 in Perth.
