The 20th Anniversary International Exhibition on Mining, Metallurgy and Metalworking – MiningMetals Uzbekistan 2026 will take place from 27 to 29 October 2026, at Uzexpocentre NEC in Tashkent, Uzbekistan.
Organisers: The exhibition is organised by Iteca Exhibitions International Exhibition Company, in partnership with ICA Eurasia Group.
Uzbekistan’s mining and metallurgical industry is one of the key drivers of the national economy, producing high value-added products and requiring the continuous adoption of advanced technologies, as well as improvements in environmental sustainability and energy efficiency across production processes.
Celebrating its 20th anniversary this year, MiningMetals Uzbekistan has established itself as one of the leading industry exhibitions in the region. The event traditionally serves as an effective platform for showcasing the latest technologies and innovations, expanding partnerships and sales opportunities, identifying distributors, and enhancing brand visibility.
To date, more than 100 companies have confirmed their participation, including major industry players such as Almalyk Mining and Metallurgical Complex, Navoi Mining and Metallurgical Company, Uzbek Technological Metals Complex, and the Ministry of Mining Industry and Geology of the Uzbekistan. A national pavilion of Germany, including 15 companies, is expected to participate, alongside a strong presence of manufacturers from across Asia and Europe.
Given the strong interest that MiningMetals Uzbekistan attracts from line government authorities and leading mining and metallurgical enterprises, participation in the exhibition offers companies an effective gateway to this promising market and an opportunity to establish valuable business networks with leading industry stakeholders.
A key element of the exhibition’s business programme will be the 8th Uzbekistan International Mining & Metals Forum – UIMF 2026. The forum will provide a platform for advancing dialogue between government and industry and will highlight several important trends shaping the sector: national industry leaders are strengthening their presence at the event; global investors continue to demonstrate strong interest in Uzbekistan’s mineral resource potential; Smart Mining is becoming a central focus of the mining industry; junior mining companies are playing an increasingly prominent role in industry discussions.
