HotCopper and The Market Link were live at the RIU Resources Round-Up in Sydney, on the floor from Tuesday, May 5, to Thursday, May 7, to talk to as many of the hundreds of ASX-listed companies − mostly operating in mining and materials − as we could during the three-day gathering at Darling Harbour.

Listen to the HotCopper podcast for in-depth discussions and insights on all the biggest headlines from throughout the week. On Spotify, Apple, and more.

The Round-Up is a conference where Australia’s miners and explorers present their biggest stories to the richest investment centre in the country. (I’m very sure we heard “tier one” and “assays” ten times an hour each.)

Through the conference halls and the presenting room, there were plenty of fascinating (and very well-known) thematics flying around Darling Harbour this year, including gold, lithium, critmins, rare earths, and oil; the latter still sure to be a hot topic throughout mid-CY26 thanks to the U.S. war in the Middle East.

We’ve put together the best half-dozen interviews we hosted throughout the conference for you to watch right here on HotCopper – all below.
