Although we share our delegates’ disappointment that we are unable to run our usual high quality in-person event in Dalian this year (postponed to 12-15 Sept. 2022 in Dalian), we remain determined to provide an alternative platform for knowledge sharing, discussion, and networking.

This Forum provides an invaluable networking and knowledge acquisition opportunity on the latest issues, trends, developments and outlook for China’s refractory minerals and their market demand domestically and worldwide.
Whether supplying, processing, trading, shipping or buying and using Chinese refractory minerals, this Forum will be a vital hub for your business.
