Forum & Exhibition
ABOUT MINEX EUROPE
Founded in 2015, MINEX Europe Forum offers a vibrant platform for the dissemination of innovative technologies and promoting investment opportunities and best practices for mining and exploration across Europe.
The previous MINEX Europe Forums have been held in Austria, Serbia, North Macedonia, and Bulgaria. These Forums have brought together local mining communities and international companies to facilitate cross-border dialogue on developing sustainable mining industries across Europe. In 2020 the Forum was organised online and highlighted mining projects in Southern, Northern, Central and Eastern Europe.
The 6th MINEX Europe Mining and Exploration Forum will be held on 5 – 7 July 2022 in Tirana, Albania focusing on Sustainable Mining in Western Balkans and wider Europe.

7 July
Mine visits
Countries of the Western Balkans region have a long-term tradition in mining, processing, and metallurgical activities. The RESEERVE project, funded by the EU, is currently mapping the mineral resources of the six ESEE countries: Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina, Croatia, Serbia, Montenegro, and North Macedonia to identify business opportunities for further development of “untapped” strategic metals and reduce exploration and investment risks. It offers comprehensive information about a significant number of business opportunities in the primary and secondary raw materials sectors in the region.
Forum
The Forum will take place on 5 and 7 July at a physical venue in Tirana, Albania. The content-rich program covers hot topics on business development opportunities across all aspects of mining and post-mining reconciliation in the Western Balkans Region. Leading experts and companies will present at the plenary, strategy and technical sessions, and panel discussions. English-Albanian simultaneous translation will be offered to presenters and delegates.
Hybrid format
MINEX Europe Forum is organised in a hybrid format connecting remote and in-person delegates, speakers and exhibitors. Access to the forum’s sessions as well as a web application and live broadcasts is provided exclusively to registered participants.
