Austmine is the peak industry body in Australia for the mining equipment, technology and services (METS) sector.  They promote the advancement and competitive positioning of Australian technology and innovation in mining and resources.  Their vision is to make Australia the true global hub for METS and continue to create opportunities for members globally.  

Austmine is proud to celebrate 25 years of advocating for Australia’s Mining Equipment, Technology and Services (METS) sector. In that time, the METS sector has become a key economic driver contributing over $90 billion in gross annual revenue to the country’s prosperity. The Australian METS sector exports over $15 billion of products and services to every corner of the globe, and invests $4 billion in R&D. Australia preserves its leading position as the global innovator in the resources industry.  In 2014, Austmine achieved significant milestones in building a powerful organisation to support their member companies in gaining access to international mining houses, building global business networks, and sourcing industry intelligence on mining projects.

In the current resources industry downturn, it has been imperative for Austmine to invest every effort to effectively respond to their members’ needs and ensure a robust future for their industry. In the past 12 months, they have invested in new resources, new strategic partnerships and have strengthened their relationship with the mining industry and government. They have also enhanced their service offering to bring their members better networking opportunities, new contacts and greater support around their marketing and branding.
