​The energy transition runs on copper, lithium, and rare earths... and we're not finding enough of them.

​The easy deposits are gone, the industry needs innovation, and we're showcasing the companies bringing frontier sensing tech into active exploration programs.

​MistyWest is bringing HardTech Forum to Denver this September, in partnership with the Denver Mineral Exploration Symposium. Expect an evening with leaders working at the frontier of mineral exploration, showcasing how breakthrough technologies can integrate and scale into real-world conditions, with plenty of time to connect with a room spanning exploration geology, R&D, finance, and policy.

​Speakers and program to be announced in the coming weeks.
