About MRMR
Welcome to our groundbreaking event hosted by CIM.


Bringing together the experts who define, evaluate, and report the world’s mineral resources and mineral reserves.
Now in its second edition, MRMR 2026 brings the full mineral resources and reserves cycle into focus.
More than just estimates and disclosures, MRMR 2026 is where technical precision meets evolving expectations—across projects, jurisdictions, and reporting codes. This is the only event fully dedicated to the practice, policy, and people behind MRMR.
Whether you work in geology, engineering, finance, or regulation, MRMR offers a rare chance to align on what matters most: reliable, defensible, and transparent resource and reserve work.
