New for 2026 - The Precious Metals Symposium

The FT Mining Summit will once again convene the most influential leaders across the global mining sector - from major producers and investors to policymakers and innovators shaping the future of the industry. This year, we are expanding the programme with the addition of the Precious Metals Symposium, offering deeper insight into one of the sector’s most dynamic and evolving areas. 

Taking place the day before the main Summit, this dedicated forum will convene leading investors, miners and policymakers to explore how shifting geopolitics, macroeconomic uncertainty and evolving market dynamics are redefining the role of precious metals.
