Panorama Minero will organize its double event, "Argentina Gold, Silver & Copper" and the annual sector dinner "The Mining Awards Night", on December 4-5 in Buenos Aires, with an estimated audience of over 650 people. This platform will highlight the current state of the mining industry.
Regarded as the year-end event for the mining sector, "Argentina Gold, Silver & Copper" has been held since 1996 and has become the premier gathering space for the industry to bid farewell to the year and set projections for the future. On its opening day, the event will feature major copper, gold, and silver companies, as well as leading industry figures who will set the stage for expectations in 2025.
This year, mining has emerged as a key sector for Argentina's economy, attracting significant investment, particularly in copper and lithium, with multi-million-dollar commitments underway in the country’s main mining hubs. Participating companies as speakers include Barrick Veladero, Newmont, Los Azules - McEwen Copper, First Quantum - Taca Taca, Gualcamayo, Hualilán, Mina Lindero, and Pan American Silver, among over 20 firms in attendance.
The event will also welcome Argentina’s top mining authority, Secretary of Mining Luis Lucero, Subsecretary Mario Thiem, governors of mining provinces, the Argentine Chamber of Mining Companies, the Argentine Mining Workers Union, as well as ambassadors from Canada and Sweden, European Union delegates, and representatives from more than 12 countries.
During the sessions, key industry challenges and bottlenecks will be addressed, with a special focus on infrastructure development, which is crucial for unlocking the potential of major mining projects. Other key topics will include the binational dynamics between Chile and Argentina, copper market expectations, international geopolitics, and the impact of the RIGI on mining financing, among others.
"This event has become one of the most iconic in Argentina’s mining industry. It is the annual meeting where the sector comes together to plan for the future, and this year we have high expectations. Mining is more active than ever, and we are committed to showcasing this key moment," said the event organizers.
Additionally, "The Mining Awards Night", taking place on the evening of December 4, will serve as the stage to honor those who have achieved excellence within the mining industry. This prestigious awards event has the backing of top sector representatives and is considered one of the most anticipated recognitions of the year. "It’s a special award because it enjoys international recognition. The companies and industry actors eagerly await the dinner to receive an award that acknowledges their efforts and achievements," the organizers added.
