AN EVENT TO REMEMBER

The International Mining and Resources Conference and Expo (IMARC) 2024 was one for the books.

This year's conference saw more than 9000 delegates, 600 speakers and 500 exhibitors on-site, positioning IMARC 2024 as the premier platform for the global mining and resources sector.

As always, there were some big names at the event.

Federal Minister for Resources Madeleine King and NSW Minister for Finance and Natural Resources Courtney Houssos addressed attendees on the opening day, unveiling policies aimed at fostering sustainable growth, reinforcing Australia's critical mineral supply chains, and supporting the country's path toward netzero emissions.

"The resources sector is crucial to Australia's prosperity and our ability to meet net-zero targets," King said.

Houssos echoed these sentiments, emphasising the NSW Government's focus on energy opportunities and partnerships to attract investment in green industries.

"NSW is on the cusp of realising the opportunities in energy, but we know we're not alone in the global race," she said.

"We will need six times the amount of critical minerals currently mined to meet net-zero commitments - and we know all of this can be found in NSW." People on the ground also appreciated the fact the event also looked beyond Australia's borders, allowing companies and their people to export their mining expertise and knowledge.

"(IMARC works for us because) we're growing globally and this is an international show," Terrain Tamer general manager Brent Hutchinson told Australian Mining on the expo floor.

"It's Australia's true international mining show." Elsewhere on the expo floor, Colterlec national general manager Shahwar Khan emphasised the need to provide delegates with "proof of concept".
