Régia Capital to Join Brazil’s Critical Minerals Delegation at PDAC 2026, Showcasing Sustainable Investment Platform for Global Investors

São Paulo, February 2026 — Régia Capital, Brazil’s first dedicated sustainable investment platform and a BB Asset-backed fund manager, is proud to join the official Brazilian delegation at PDAC 2026 — the world’s premier mining convention — taking place March 1–4 in Toronto, Canada.

Régia will be participating alongside a high-level delegation of over 130 representatives, including executives from 33 Brazilian mining companies, government authorities, and sectoral institutions, coordinated by ADIMB in partnership with ApexBrasil, the Brazil-Canada Chamber of Commerce (BCCC), and the Brazilian Consulate General in Toronto.

“Brazil is writing the defining chapter of the critical minerals story,” said Bruce Keith, Partner and Chief Sustainability Officer at Régia Capital. “PDAC is where the world’s capital allocators and project developers come together, and we are excited to be part of this delegation to demonstrate that Brazil now offers not just exceptional mineral endowment, but the sophisticated, sustainable financial architecture to unlock it responsibly.”

We are proud to join Brazil’s oficial delegation at Prospectors & Developers Association of Canada (PDAC) Convention 2026, the world’s premier mining convention.

At PDAC, we will be connecting with international investors, DFIs, and project developers, and presenting our critical minerals investment strategy built to mobilize institutional capital into projects that meet the highest standards of ESG, traceability, and sustainable supply-chain integrity.

Brazil is not just a critical minerals story – it is the critical minerals story for energy transition. Lithium, nickel, cobalt, copper, rare earths: the country holds world-class endowments across the energy transition mineral spectrum. What has changed is the financial architecture needed to unlock them responsibly with the proper sustainability expertise. That is where Régia comes in.

We will be represented by Bruce Keith, our Co-Head of Sustainability, and Vítor Ornelas, our Critical Minerals Analyst.

If you are attending #PDAC and want to explore how Brazil’s sophisticated capital markets are meeting the global demand for responsible mineral investment, let’s connect.
