Shandong Humon Smelting Co., Ltd. invites you to the 2026 SMM (14th) Minor Metals Industry Conference

In 2026, global competition for critical minerals has entered a white-hot stage. Geopolitical maneuvering continues to deepen, and global industry and supply chains are undergoing accelerated restructuring. A new round of technological revolution centered on AI semiconductors, new energy, high-end manufacturing, and aerospace is propelling the minor metals industry into a historic period of development opportunities and profound transformation! Globally, the EU Critical Raw Materials Act and the US Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) are being implemented continuously. The Minerals Security Partnership continues to expand, and the trends of localization and regionalization of critical mineral supply chains are intensifying. The resource contests, technical barriers, and trade rule restructuring surrounding strategic minor metals—such as antimony, indium, gallium, germanium, bismuth, selenium, tellurium, and rhenium—have become the core focus of global high-end manufacturing competition. As the world’s core supplier of minor metals, China holds a dominant position in the smelting and supply of many minor metal varieties.

Against this backdrop, the 2026 SMM (14th) Minor Metals Industry Conference brings together enterprises along the entire industry chain of antimony, indium, gallium, germanium, bismuth, selenium, tellurium, and rhenium, as well as research institutes, government agencies, financial and investment institutions, and trade service providers to build a high-standard, full-chain, and in-depth exchange and cooperation platform. The conference will deeply interpret global policy shifts, analyze supply-demand patterns and price trends, identify growth opportunities in end-use applications, and match government-enterprise resources with cross-border cooperation opportunities, helping enterprises accurately grasp industry trends, break through development bottlenecks, optimize supply chain layouts, and seize market opportunities, jointly promoting the high-quality and sustainable development of China's minor metals industry.

Shandong Humon Smelting Co., Ltd. will make a grand appearance at this conference. We will keep pace with the times, set our sights on our goals, forge ahead with determination and courage! Click to register now. We look forward to meeting you at the conference.
