Critical Minerals Investment Showcase

The NSW Critical Minerals Investment Showcase launched a week focused on mining, investment and innovation. 

Hosted at historic Sydney location The Mint, the showcase promoted NSW as an investment destination for safe and sustainable mining. It also highlighted support for the development of critical minerals and high-tech metals value chains in NSW.

Minister for Natural Resources Courtney Houssos addressed the 130 investors in attendance, highlighting the NSW Government’s newly launched Critical Minerals and High-Tech Metals Strategy. 

The NSW Government continues to drive investment and promote the state as a destination for investing in critical minerals and high-tech metals projects, which will be in high demand because of the global energy transition to Net Zero.

There are about 45 projects in the NSW development pipeline at varying stages of development – approved, advanced stage, and advanced exploration stage. Many of these projects offer opportunities for investment.

Attendees heard about investment opportunities for critical minerals projects in NSW from 5 investment-ready companies - Australian Strategic Materials (ASM), First Tin PLC, Larvotto Resources, Godolphin Resources, and Peel Mining.

Investors from key markets, including Japan, Korea, India, Europe, the United Kingdom, the Middle East, and the United States were in attendance. 

NSW has an abundance of globally significant deposits for critical minerals and high-tech metals, with resources or exploration potential for 21 of the 31 minerals on the Australian critical minerals List.

The state is well positioned to meet increasing global demand for critical minerals.
