Event Details

BACKGROUND

As India is approaching towards achieving the long-term strategy to reach net-zero by 2070, the Indian mining sector has identified several ways to build sustainability into mining by implementing sustainable practices such as shifting to renewable energy sources, utilizing low-carbon decarbonization strategy, adopting cleaner vehicles, technological innovations in transportation of minerals and metals and reducing waste.

 

The growing demand for renewable energy technology and electrification infrastructure are critical for achieving net-zero targets, which heavily relies on mining of critical minerals. With the growing demand for critical mineral, their method of extraction and processing will play an equally important role. Supporting sustainability in mining through policymaking, improved mining practices, advancing recycling, and innovation will be a key aspect of a successful energy transition. Hence, it is necessary to develop a roadmap, to address the issues and integrate sustainability for decarbonizing the sector.

 

Mining businesses today operate in a complex environment, driven by global trade disruptions, geopolitics, climate imperatives, civil society expectations, and global competition. In a quest for a holistic approach to sustainability, the Indian Mining Industry is undergoing a transformative journey to integrate Environment, Social, Governance (ESG) practices. Along with this, it is necessary to implement innovation in data-driven emerging technologies, automation and Internet of Things (IoT) systems, to navigate the complexities and align their operations to match stakeholders’ expectations.

 

In this background, FIMI is organizing the ‘Sustainable Mining Summit 2025’ at Hotel Mayfair Lagoon, Bhubaneswar on 26-27 May, 2025. The summit aims to deliberate on various mining issues concerning sustainability, which will result in formulation of road-map for sustainable mining in India. Various stakeholders, including Government agencies, regulators, industry stalwarts, practicing managers, NGOs, academicians and strategists are expected to come together on this platform to deliberate on these very important issues.
