ACPS will celebrate its 60th Anniversary in 2026, with the ACPS National Conference and Exhibition serving as the primary event to mark this milestone. The conference will be held in the Hunter Valley from March 15–19, 2026.

Key objectives include improving asset availability, reliability, and metallurgical performance to reduce operating costs and maximise the value delivered by coal preparation.
Over four days, local and international coal preparation experts will present a range of technical papers and talks, covering the latest industry advancements. Attendees can also look forward to exceptional social, networking, and technical events.
The conference is open to professionals in mining, metallurgy, and processing, as well as university students, consultants, and technology company representatives. Additionally, 40 exhibitors will showcase their equipment and services.
On behalf of the Organising Committees, I look forward to warmly welcoming you to Rydges, Pokolbin in March 2026, as we celebrate the 60th Anniversary and the 19th ACPS National Conference and Exhibition.
