en.Wedoany.com Reported - Solis Minerals will present its copper and lithium exploration plans at the RIU Sydney Resources Round-up, held from May 5 to 7, 2026, at the Hyatt Regency Sydney. Ahead of the conference, company CEO Mitch Thomas stated that the event is a key fixture on the calendar, featuring high-quality attendees.

Thomas will deliver a presentation on May 6 at 4:10 PM AEST, introducing the company's Cinto and Cucho copper projects in Peru, as well as its lithium exploration portfolio in Brazil. He described the RIU event as a "highly efficient way" to learn about emerging investment opportunities and gain convenient access to management.

Solis recently acquired a lithium project in Minas Gerais, Brazil, from a Rio Tinto subsidiary for a purchase price of US$500,000 (approximately A$694,000), with Rio Tinto retaining a 1.75% net smelter return royalty. This asset will expand the company's lithium resource pipeline.

In Peru, the Cinto copper project covers 3,200 hectares and is located southeast of the Toquepala mine; the Cucho copper project, situated northwest of Lima, possesses historical drilling data and surface copper mineralization. Thomas anticipates that the exploration expenditure gap for energy transition metals will benefit copper and lithium prices, with copper prices rising 30.29% year-on-year to US$5.97 per pound, and lithium prices surging 163.79% year-on-year to RMB 177,000 per tonne.

Solis Minerals is focused on exploring prospective copper regions in South America. This year's RIU conference will bring together Western Australian companies and East Coast investors, creating an efficient environment for mining finance.
