On 27 October 2026, H.E. Ms. Arjaree Sriratanaban, Ambassador of Thailand to Australia, attended the International Mining and Resources Conference (IMARC) 2026 at the International Convention Centre (ICC) in Sydney, upon invitation by the conference organiser.

IMARC is a leading international platform for mining and resources industry, bringing together government representatives, business leaders, investors and experts from around the world to exchange views on developments in the mining sector, critical minerals, supply chain security, and the application of technologies and innovation for efficient and sustainable resource development. The Conference therefore provided a unique opportunity to learn of latest developments in mining technologies and innovation, particularly green technologies and sustainable resource management practices that could be adapted to Thailand and pave ways for cooperation between Thailand and Australia in research, technology development and capacity building in relevant sectors.

During the Conference, the Ambassador also met with the delegation from Thailand’s Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment, led by Mr. Preecha Saithong, Deputy Director-General, Department of Mineral Resources, who delivered remarks highlighting Thailand’s potential and opportunities in the mineral sector during the Ministerial and Government Global Opportunities Program.
