AME Roundup 2027 Opens Registration for Mineral Exploration Conference

The Association for Mineral Exploration (AME) has opened registration for its annual AME Roundup conference, set to take place from January 25 to 28, 2027, in Vancouver, British Columbia. The event is expected to attract more than 7,550 delegates from 44 countries, including geoscientists, prospectors, financiers, investors, suppliers, governments, and Indigenous partners.

According to Todd Stone, AME President and CEO, the conference is crucial in an era where securing critical minerals is paramount.

The theme of this year's conference, "Minerals for Tomorrow," underscores the essential role mineral exploration plays in building a secure, resilient future. The event will explore the ideas, innovations, policies, and investments required to find the critical minerals the world needs, responsibly, sustainably, and for generations to come.

Stone highlighted several key areas of focus for the conference: - Exploration Secures Tomorrow: AME Roundup will demonstrate the critical role mineral exploration plays in securing Canada's economic future. Exploration is the first step in securing the minerals needed to protect and secure sovereignty. - Canada's Mineral Future Depends on the Right Policy: As global demand for critical minerals accelerates, government policy must keep pace. Stone emphasized the need for a stronger Canadian Exploration Expense (CEE) and a dual-use designation for critical mineral projects to keep exploration capital in Canada. - Indigenous Partnership and Reconciliation: AME Roundup will provide a national platform for mineral exploration to showcase success stories and strengthen relationships between Indigenous communities and explorers. - Building Tomorrow Requires Innovation and Geoscience: Today's mineral exploration relies on digital, automated, and data-driven tools, including artificial intelligence, machine learning, and advanced geophysics, that are helping transform how discoveries are made.

AME Roundup is Canada's premier conference for the global mineral exploration industry, attracting participants from around the world. Each year, it serves as a platform for deals to be made, talent to be discovered, and trends to be set. The event is hosted by the Association for Mineral Exploration (AME), established in 1912 and representing more than 6,500 members engaged in mineral exploration and development in Canada and globally. AME promotes a safe, economically strong, and environmentally responsible industry through clear initiatives, policies, events, and tools.
