SUMMARY: Representatives from Licata Law will attend the World Mining Congress 2026, joining mining industry leaders from around the globe to discuss the future of mining, innovation, sustainability, and resource development.
TORONTO, ONTARIO – Licata Law is pleased to announce that members of the firm will attend the 27th World Mining Congress (WMC 2026), taking place June 24-26 in Lima, Peru.
Last held in Brisbane, Australia, in 2023 and recognized as one of the mining industry’s premier international gatherings, the World Mining Congress brings together mining companies, government representatives, investors, researchers, and industry experts from around the world. This year’s event is centred around the theme “Mining for the Future: Trust, Transformation, and Technology.”
Licata’s clients explore, build, and operate mineral projects across South America; as a firm representing companies with global interests, the location of the conference in one of South America’s largest and most important cities provides an ideal opportunity to connect with industry leaders, partners, and stakeholders from across the region.
Mining is a cornerstone of Ontario’s economy, supporting communities, creating employment opportunities, and supplying critical minerals needed for modern infrastructure and manufacturing. As the industry continues to evolve, legal considerations surrounding commercial agreements, Indigenous partnerships, environmental compliance, project development, and dispute resolution remain increasingly important.
These legal considerations become more complex as international companies establish mining operations in countries around the world; a global conference creates the opportunity for more nuanced perspectives on these complexities.
“Mining is a global industry, and the issues shaping its future have direct implications for companies operating here in Ontario as well as those operating abroad,” said a representative of Licata Law. “We’re looking forward to learning from industry leaders, exchanging ideas with professionals from around the world, and bringing those insights back to the clients and communities we serve.”
The World Mining Congress is expected to feature keynote presentations, technical sessions, networking opportunities, and discussions focused on responsible resource development, technological innovation, operational efficiency, and the future supply of critical minerals.
By participating in international industry events, Licata Law continues its commitment to understanding the legal and business environments that affect mining companies, contractors, suppliers, and other organizations operating within Canada’s resource sector.
