The Australian Saudi Business Forum & Council in collaboration with Australian trade and investment commission, are leading an Australian delegation to the Future Minerals Forum (FMF) 2025. See below for the benefits we offer to our delegates.

Organized by the Saudi Ministry of Industry and Minerals Resources (MIMR), FMF is dedicated to creating resilient mineral value chains in the regions of Africa, Western, and Central Asia. In its third edition, the FMF has become one of the world's largest gatherings of senior government and industry representatives in the mining and minerals sector.

Saudi Arabia has the vision, mineral endowment, a large market, regional and international relationships, and strategic location to become a hub for the minerals value chain in the Middle East and Africa region. With an estimated $1.3 trillion of mineral wealth across 52 commodities (including base metals, copper, zinc, bauxite, gold, silver, iron, lead, and phosphate), the Kingdom aims to develop its mining sector into the 3rd pillar of the economic diversification and build an entire mine to metal manufacturing value chain.
