Join UNSW Sydney and industry partners including NSW Government, BHP and Epiroc, for the official industry introduction of the ARC Research Hub for Next Generation Mining Methods (NextGenMIN) at IMARC 2026.

Backed by approximately $28 million in combined cash and in-kind contributions, NextGenMIN brings together UNSW, five Australian universities, more than 20 industry partners and government to develop safer, smarter and more sustainable approaches to mining critical minerals and strategic materials.

Hosted at the NSW Government booth, the event will introduce the Hub to the broader mining industry, recognise its partners and supporters, and showcase the research, technology and innovation priorities that will help shape the next generation of mining in Australia.

Note: This is open to all attendees. If you have already registered for IMARC 2026, simply proceed to the venue to attend the sideline event.
