WMC 2026 | Mining for the future
During the Festival of the Sun in Peru (Inti Raymi), the World Mining Congress 2026 unites global industry leaders, governments, investors and scientists in a shared mission: to redefine how the mining industry delivers the minerals society urgently needs responsibly, efficiently, and sustainably.
It is a global platform for collaboration and action, driving Trust, Transformation and Technology towards a thriving and sustainable future.
WMC 2026 will take place at the Lima Convention Center | Calle del Comercio 192, San Borja, Lima, Peru.
The Challenge
We face a global challenge: how to deliver the minerals the world urgently needs, faster, smarter and more responsibly.
The WMC2026 in Peru is a call to action to rethink how we design, develop, and deliver the resources society depends on.
Our challenge is bold:
✨How much more value can we responsibly unlock from what we already have?
✨ How much can we shorten project timelines without cutting corners?
We have the people. We have the energy. We can solve this.
Join us, bring your voice to the plenaries, the technical track, and the global conversations. Let’s do this together!
