27th Annual Mineral Sands & Rare Earths Conference

Australasia’s key meeting place for the mineral sands and rare earths industries

Early bird ends 15 November 2026

As global demand for secure, diversified supply of these critical materials surges, Australia's mineral sands and rare earths sectors hold a strong advantage. New mine approvals, major offtake deals, government investments and accelerating rare earths projects are reshaping the industry in real time.

For 27 years, this conference has been the premier, and the only dedicated event in Australia for the industry. This year's agenda delivers a comprehensive look at TiO2 and zircon markets, the rare earths boom, and the processing and refining capability being built on home soil – covering current operations, project updates and investment opportunities, all against a backdrop where securing supply has never mattered more.

Key themes to be covered:

  • Market outlooks for zircon, TiO2, rare earths, and emerging minerals
  • Project updates on leading Australian and regional mineral sands and rare earths projects.
  • Policy and investment landscape, including government incentives, funding, and critical minerals deals.
  • Future opportunities, including market potential, M&A trends, and upcoming investments.
  • End-user perspectives on demand trends and industry applications.
  • Sustainability and social licence, covering environmental challenges, community engagement, and site rehabilitation.
  • Cutting-edge tech advancements in mineral processing, refining, and product quality.
  • Industry challenges, including logistics, supply chain strategies, and capital access.
