Visitor pre-registration is now open [Gansu Nonferrous Metallurgy Industry Expo] Meet in Jincheng Lanzhou on October 30


To promote the high-quality development of the nonferrous metals industry in central and western China, and to advance the green and low-carbon transformation of the metallurgical industry as well as regional coordination, preparations for the 2026 China Central and Western Nonferrous Metals Metallurgical Industry Equipment Technology Exchange Conference and Expo are fully complete. The event will be held from October 30 to November 1, 2026, at the Gansu International Convention and Exhibition Center (No. 1 Bei Binhe East Road, Chengguan District, Lanzhou).

This edition of the expo is co-hosted by the Gansu Society for Metals, together with the Shaanxi, Shanxi, Henan, and Sichuan Societies for Metals, as well as the Gansu Mining Federation. Leveraging Gansu's "nickel-copper-cobalt-gold triangle" resource endowment and its Belt and Road period location, the event is themed "Innovation-Driven, Smart Manufacturing for the Future, Green Empowerment." It focuses on new-type industrialization and the demand for metallurgical equipment upgrades, aiming to build a regional professional exchange platform in central and western China dedicated to nonferrous metals mining, beneficiation, smelting, and green equipment.

The expo has already brought together more than 150 high-quality exhibitors, including Jinchuan Group, JISCO Dongxing Aluminum, Baiyin Nonferrous Group Co., Ltd., Lanzhou Electric Group, LS Group, Northwest Aluminum, Northwest Research Institute of Mining and Metallurgy, Lanzhou Engineering & Research Institute of Nonferrous Metallurgy, and a group of core suppliers in metallurgical equipment, material processing equipment, and intelligent control. It is expected to attract over 10,000 professional visitors, covering key smelters, mining companies, design institutes, and industrial parks across the five provinces.

The exhibition content spans key links across the entire nonferrous metals industry chain, presenting in a concentrated manner raw materials and alloy materials for nonferrous metals, smelting furnaces and refractory materials, intelligent processing and green flue gas treatment and solid waste resource utilization technologies, recycled metal sorting processes, and production line automation and digitalization solutions. It will also run in parallel with the 2026 Central and Western Aluminum Industry Special Exhibition and the mining equipment matchmaking zone, reflecting the industry's phased achievements in energy conservation, carbon reduction, and intelligent upgrading.

During the expo, technical forums and supply-demand matchmaking events will be held, inviting industry experts, technical leaders from chain-leading enterprises, and procurement decision-makers to discuss topics such as green transformation of smelting under the dual-carbon context and the implementation of digital twin production lines. Supporting activities will include guided tours for key buyers and new product launches by exhibitors, allowing forum insights to directly connect with on-site selection needs.

This edition of the expo has several highlights: first, strong regional focus, with joint invitations from societies in five provinces and concentrated attendance of buyers from Northwest, central China, and Southwest China, enabling cross-regional solution comparison in a single visit; second, clear leadership from leading enterprises, with multiple local and neighboring key enterprises debuting equipment related to their annual technological transformation directions; third, pragmatic matchmaking, with procurement intentions collected before the expo and scheduled one-on-one meetings arranged during the event, enhancing the follow-up value of every stop.

Preparations for booth construction, visitor group organization, forum agenda, and other work have been steadily advanced and put in place. The organizing committee stated that it will, with solid services and pragmatic organization, build an industry exchange scenario that is understandable, thoroughly answerable, and easy to follow for exhibitors and professional visitors.

In the golden October, by the banks of the Yellow River, we will jointly discuss a new landscape for green metallurgy. The 2026 China Central and Western Nonferrous Metallurgy Industrial Equipment and Technology Exchange Conference and Expo sincerely invites downstream enterprises, design institutes, industrial parks, purchasers, and industry peers to visit, negotiate, and discuss opportunities for equipment upgrading, and to jointly draw a new blueprint for the high-quality development of nonferrous metallurgy in central and western China.

Century Aluminum CEO Jesse Gary said in an interview published on October 19 that US Section 232 tariffs on steel and aluminum have been highly effective in encouraging domestic manufacturing investment and reshoring, urging policymakers to maintain the existing tariff structure during USMCA negotiations. The comments followed reports that US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick opposed reducing the 25% tariffs on Mexican automobiles and 50% tariffs on steel and aluminum, as well as lowering duties on certain derivative products, contributing to stalled US-Mexico trade negotiations. Century Aluminum maintains that the current tariff framework supports domestic primary aluminum production and investment, while North American aluminum producers continue to monitor the potential implications for regional trade and supply chains.
