The MiningForum is Germany’s number one international networking conference for the mining and raw materials sector, bringing together the industry’s top decision makers, experts and specialists every two years to discuss topics related to mining and associated fields, such as tunneling and geophysics. The high-profile two-day event offers a comprehensive panorama view of various complex topics along the entire raw materials value chain.
The MiningForum has been running for over 30 years and now regularly welcomes participants from nearly 30 different countries. So whatever your project stage or location, here you will meet likeminded industry professionals who have the expertise, experience and technology to support you in the specific challenges of your business..
Every two years, our renowned speakers and representatives from the mining industry, politics and research address relevant issues in the national and international natural resources industry with a practical and informative focus – all under the motto “For a sustainable future”.
The accompanying exhibition, as a projection space for manufacturers and companies to engage with the public, creates the perfect setting for targeted communication and making new contacts – here you can meet over 40 companies in the industry.
Over 400 top decision makers and experts attended MiningForum 2024 to discuss current and future developments in the sector. We look forward to welcoming them, and you, in Berlin at the MiningForum Conference and Exhibition, 18-19 June 2026.
For me, MiningForum is the most important mining event in Germany: it is the most renowned event where you can meet all the players in Germany, but also international participants.

Sustainability means not only investing in the future with foresight, but also processing the experience and knowledge we have already gathered in such a way that it is available for us to use long-term. Particularly in research, we otherwise run the risk of brain drain due to fixed-term contracts and funding.

MiningForum is an excellent magnet for foreign companies, who can clearly benefit from the German expertise in sustainable mining that is on display here. Silke Poppe, Head of the New Federal States Structural Change Unit GTAI.

For us, sustainability is a question of safety in mining: our goal is to make the entire process safer - both for the employees and operators of a mine, but also for the affected population.
