WA Mining Conference and Exhibition 2026 (WA Mining) is returning in September with a renewed focus on innovation, sustainability and operational excellence, reinforcing its place as a key meeting point for the WA resources sector.
Driven by strong industry demand, the event will feature its dedicated Decarbonisation Zone alongside a new Transformative Tech Zone, both designed to showcase the technologies and strategies reshaping modern mining.
Prime Creative Media show director – mining events Rebecca Todesco said the event’s return comes at a pivotal time for the industry.
“WA Mining is coming back at a time when the industry is actively transforming,” Todesco said. “The Decarbonisation Zone and the new Tech Zone are a clear representation of where mining is headed – towards smarter, more sustainable and more efficient operations.”
The Transformative Tech Zone will bring together a range of forward-thinking companies demonstrating solutions already delivering impact across mining operations. Some exhibitors are already locked in, including LEAP Australia, Strata Bot AI and Auxilium One. The dedicated zone will provide attendees with direct access to real-world applications of automation, digitalisation and data-driven technologies.
“Attendees won’t just see what’s possible they’ll see what’s already being implemented across the sector,” Todesco said. “This is about practical solutions that companies can adopt now to stay competitive.”
The Decarbonisation Zone will focus on supporting the industry’s transition to a lower-carbon future, connecting attendees with solutions aimed at reducing emissions and improving energy efficiency. GST Australia will be among the exhibitors, showcasing offerings that support mining businesses in navigating decarbonisation pathways and strengthening environmental performance.
The return of WA Mining follows overwhelmingly positive feedback from its previous edition, with the expo floor selling out and with both exhibitors and attendees highlighting the event’s strong industry relevance and quality of engagement.
“The feedback we received last event was incredibly encouraging,” Todesco said. “Exhibitors saw real value in the conversations they were having, and attendees appreciated the focused, practical nature of the event.”
Building on this momentum, WA Mining 2026 is expected to deliver even greater opportunities for connection, knowledge-sharing and business development, attracting a broad cross-section of the industry, from major operators and contractors to technology providers and emerging innovators.
WA Mining is where technology, sustainability and operational excellence come together, and where the next phase of mining will be shaped.
