Lincoln Minerals (ASX:LML) CEO Chris Wilcox says the main benefit of attending the RIU Sydney Resources Round-Up 2026 is the “direct market engagement”, speaking to Mining.com.au ahead of the annual event.

“It gives us an opportunity to present our strategy, explain recent progress, and answer investor questions in person,” Wilcox explains.

“For first-time attendees, it is also valuable for understanding how the market is viewing our sector and what themes investors are focused on.”

Lincoln Minerals will attend the event, with Wilcox presenting on behalf of the company on Wednesday 6 May at 4.50pm AEST.

The RIU Sydney Resources Round-Up will be held at the Hyatt Regency Sydney on 5–7 May 2026, acting as a forum for corporate mining investors.

In Lincoln’s presentation, Wilcox intends to address the company’s transition into a more active exploration phase, centred on copper and base metals at the Minbrie Copper Project in South Australia’s Eyre Peninsula.

Key points of the presentation include the significance of securing approvals for stage one drilling, the scale of the Minbrie opportunity, and Eagle Ridge as a priority target.

“For Lincoln, our objective is to build market awareness of the Minbrie Copper Project and its near-term catalysts,” Wilcox tells this news service.

“It is also a valuable chance to engage directly with shareholders and potential new investors as drilling activity ramps up.”

From south to east

Held in Sydney each year, RIU describes the Resources Round-Up as the “largest and busiest investment resources conference” on Australia’s east coast, bringing in record delegate numbers last year.

The conference has been held annually for more than 20 years, with the event set to kick off again next week.

“RIU has built a strong reputation as one of the key conferences for connecting junior resource companies with investors who actively follow the sector,” Wilcox adds.

“It attracts a mix of retail investors, brokers, and fund managers, which gives us access to a highly engaged audience.”

Lincoln’s Wilcox describes the year ahead as an “important execution year” for the company that will bring a number of key milestones.

Approvals are currently in place for stage one drilling, with final preparations being organised for an initial aircore drilling campaign.

Key milestones to follow include the beginning of the drilling program, results, target generation and ranking, and potential for a follow-up program.

Follow-up work will be conducted through either reverse circulation or diamond drilling later this year.

Mining.com.au is a media partner for the RIU Sydney Resources Round-Up conference and will be in attendance at this year’s program.
