Off-Earth Mining Forum

One Industry or Two?

The Off-Earth Mining Forum (OEMF) 2025 is a one-of-a-kind event at the intersection of two frontier sectors: space and mining.

Hosted by the Australian Centre for Space Engineering Research (ACSER) and the UNSW School of Minerals and Energy Resources Engineering, OEMF 2025 brings together thought leaders, innovators, and disruptors shaping the future of off-world resource exploration and utilisation.

Held just days before the International Astronautical Congress (IAC) 2025, this seventh edition of the Forum will once again attract a global audience of researchers, government bodies, industry leaders, and emerging talent.

This is your opportunity to connect with the growing space resources community and explore the transformative potential of mining beyond Earth.

Don't miss your chance to be part of this transformative event!
