Critica<\/a>\u2019s (ASX:CRI) CEO Jacob Deysel says it is building \u201ca scalable critical minerals platform aligned to Western supply chains\u201d, and the message will be spread at this year\u2019s RIU Sydney Resources Round-Up<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Speaking to Mining.com.au ahead of this year\u2019s event, Deysel explains that RIU Sydney will allow the company to communicate the broader story of its assets and strengthen relationships with investors, brokers, and analysts.<\/p>\n

\u201cPrimarily, we want to broaden awareness of Critica and what we are building,\u201d Deysel tells this news service.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cWe have two key projects. Jupiter is our flagship rare earth asset \u2014 a 1.8-billion-tonne resource at 1,700 parts per million total rare earth oxides (TREO), making it Australia\u2019s largest clay-hosted rare earth deposit.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt also gives us exposure to magnet and heavy rare earths, yttrium and gallium, including a 70,000-tonne gallium resource.<\/p>\n

\u201cMt Lindsay adds strategic optionality in tin and tungsten, with 81,000 tonnes of tin and 3.2 million metric tonne units of tungsten.\u201d<\/p>\n

Kicking off tomorrow (5 May) at the Hyatt Regency Sydney, the three-day RIU Sydney Resources Round-Up acts as a forum for corporate mining investors.<\/p>\n

Deysel will be presenting on behalf of Critica at the conference on Thursday 7 May at 2.40pm AEST.<\/p>\n

News across the sector<\/p>\n

Critica CEO Deysel explains that for first-time attendees, RIU is an efficient mining investment forum for explorers and developers to get \u201cacross the sector\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cYou can meet management teams directly, compare opportunities, and get a real feel for market sentiment,\u201d Deysel adds.<\/p>\n

\u201cFor us, it is also a two-way process. We are there to tell the Critica story, but also to hear directly from investors, brokers, and analysts about what they are focused on.\u201d<\/p>\n

Slightly different to RIU\u2019s Fremantle event earlier this year, the RIU Sydney Resources Round-Up is an investor-heavy resources event, focused on connecting explorers with local and international investment groups.<\/p>\n

\u201cRIU is very investor focused, which is what makes it valuable. The audience understands resources, so the conversations are usually direct, informed, and commercially useful,\u201d Deysel tells this news service.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is also a focused environment. It gives companies like Critica the opportunity to explain not just the project, but the broader strategic context \u2014 why critical minerals matter, why Western supply chains need to be built, and where Critica fits into that.\u201d<\/p>\n

Critica will address how its Jupiter Project differentiates from other assets in its presentation, focusing on execution and metallurgy, as well as discussing Mt Lindsey.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cThe strength of our team is reflected in delivery: we moved from discovery to commercial-grade MREO in 23 months,\u201d Deysel says.<\/p>\n

\u201cAlong the way, we\u2019ve demonstrated around 95% mass rejection upfront and 6\u201310 times grade uplift.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe overarching theme is strategic relevance \u2014 Critica is aligned to where demand is going: Defence, AI, electrification, and secure supply chains.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mining.com.au is a media partner for the RIU Sydney Resources Round-Up conference and will be in attendance at this year\u2019s program.\u00a0<\/p>\n
