Argentina will host the first national edition of this international gathering in May. Organized by Latin Rocks, the event will bring together specialists, companies, and investors from across the globe to analyze the country’s geological potential and the future of mineral exploration.
The international mining community is once again focusing on Argentina. Mendoza has been chosen as the official venue for Argentina Rocks, a congress that will convene geologists, exploration professionals, mining companies, investors, and technology providers from both the domestic and global markets.
The event will take place on May 27–28 at the Sheraton Mendoza Hotel. Latin Rocks, which has more than ten years of experience organizing specialized technical forums throughout Latin America, leads the initiative.
Argentina Rocks highlights the importance of geological knowledge and the generation of reliable technical information during the earliest stages of mining projects. Exploration is presented as the scientific and analytical foundation on which the industry’s future is built.
It is at this point in the project lifecycle that geological data are produced, the subsurface begins to be understood, and the technical criteria are defined to determine whether future development may be viable. Without consistent investment in exploration, sustainable mining over the long term cannot be achieved.
The strategic value of geology
The purpose of the congress is to underscore geology as the backbone of mining. Argentina Rocks will gather key actors from across the ecosystem — geoscientists, corporate leaders, investors, and specialized service providers — to discuss discoveries, opportunities, and challenges that will shape exploration in Argentina.
The meeting point is designed to integrate technical expertise, professional experience, and strategic thinking, reinforcing the foundations of mining from the ground up.
Technical agenda and specialized networking
Over two days, attendees will participate in technical conferences, panel discussions, poster sessions, and networking spaces. A trade exhibition will also showcase companies at the forefront of innovation and technology applied to mineral exploration.
The program seeks to promote both professional updating and the creation of strategic ties among operators, consultants, investors, and technical teams.
In addition, technical courses will be offered in Mendoza and San Juan, providing practical training environments and direct engagement with leading experts, strengthening knowledge exchange within a highly specialized framework.
Technical information for a stronger industry
In a global environment marked by growing demand for copper, gold, and silver, Argentina Rocks aims to add value through rigorous data and expert analysis. The congress contributes to building a more transparent industry, where solid information helps reduce uncertainty and foster trust in emerging projects.
The blend of presentations, professional dialogue, and educational activities positions Argentina Rocks as a premier venue for discussing and shaping the future of exploration.
A meeting place for new opportunities
Argentina Rocks 2026 is designed for geologists, technical teams, mining companies, specialized suppliers, consultants, academic institutions, and investors involved in early project stages. It will be a setting where knowledge, cooperation, and business opportunities converge.
Companies and professionals interested in participating in this first edition in Argentina are invited to join and position their brands and expertise at the center of the exploration community.
With this event, Mendoza further strengthens its standing as a destination for international technical gatherings and as a hub connecting geological knowledge, investment, and productive development.
