World-leading research. Regional mining. Global demand. A critical moment for Tasmania.
From King Island and the North West to global supply chains, Tasmania is part of the critical minerals story.
The global clean energy transition depends on these resources: from the copper in transmission lines to the lithium, nickel and tungsten essential for batteries, electric vehicles and renewable technologies.
As demand accelerates and supply chains tighten, attention is shifting to how these materials are sourced, governed and integrated into a low-carbon future.
Bringing together research, industry and on-the-ground experience, this discussion considers how Tasmania can navigate economic opportunity, environmental responsibility and energy priorities, while contributing to a more responsible global approach to critical minerals development.
