Investors seeking exposure to the mining and critical minerals sector will have a concentrated opportunity to engage with more than 30 companies when the Precious Metals & Critical Minerals Virtual Investor Conference takes place online from October 13 to 15, 2026. Hosted by Virtual Investor Conferences, an OTC Markets Group property, the event spans gold, silver, copper, nickel, rare earths, phosphate, uranium, and royalties, with each session concluding with audience Q&A. B2i Digital, Inc. serves as the Official Marketing Partner, leveraging an ecosystem built since 2021 that includes over 1,200 news, broadcast, and trade outlets with a combined monthly audience of more than 330 million, plus a community of 1.7 million investors and market participants.
The significance of the conference extends beyond the typical investor roadshow. As the global energy transition accelerates, demand for critical minerals such as copper, nickel, rare earths, and lithium-battery inputs like phosphate has surged, yet supply chains remain constrained and geographically concentrated. The presenting companies represent a spectrum from early-stage exploration to producing mines, offering investors a rare chance to evaluate projects across multiple jurisdictions and commodities in a single forum. Management teams are accepting virtual meeting requests, enabling one-on-one discussions that are often difficult to arrange outside of major in-person conferences.
Two B2i Digital Featured Companies will present: Canadian Phosphate Limited on October 13 and Renforth Resources Inc. on October 15. Canadian Phosphate is advancing phosphate projects in British Columbia and Utah, positioning itself in the mine-to-market supply chain for lithium iron phosphate batteries, a rapidly growing segment of the EV and energy storage markets. Renforth Resources is focused on the Parbec gold deposit in the Abitibi region of Québec, one of the world's most prolific gold districts. Their participation underscores the conference's appeal to companies seeking visibility with a targeted investor audience.
David Shapiro, Chief Executive Officer of B2i Digital, emphasized the strategic importance of the event: "The lineup keeps growing, which tells you mining companies want the market's attention and the market wants to hear from them. They're called critical minerals for a reason. Find out why, and who is best equipped to deliver them. Then request your one-on-one meetings. As I've said before, that's the unique opportunity the VIC offers."
The conference agenda includes a diverse array of companies. On October 13, NeoTerra Group Plc will discuss rare earths, fluorspar, and gallium in Mozambique; Copper Intelligence Inc. will highlight copper exploration in the DRC; and Ivanhoe Mines Ltd. will present its copper, zinc, and platinum group metals mines in the DRC and South Africa. Other notable presenters include First Phosphate Corp., Royal Road Minerals Limited, Japan Gold Corp., Heliostar Metals Ltd., and Silverco Mining Ltd.
