Pride in the Workplace in Full Bloom!
A huge shoutout to everyone who rolled up their sleeves for our recent working bee at the Kunwarara Mine Site Offices!
Thanks to the amazing efforts of our "Pride in the Workplace" and extended mine team and driven by the QMAG Culture Committee, the entrance is now looking sharp with a fresh garden bed of hedging that’s as welcoming as it will be green.
This initiative is part of our ongoing commitment to creating a workplace we can all be proud of. Whether you planted, pruned, or provided moral support in the scorching weather on the day (we see you!), your contribution made a real difference.
Big thanks to everyone involved - You’ve helped make KG1 a little brighter! We look forward to seeing the hedge take shape in the coming months.

Falcon Update
The peregrine falcons at QMAG’s Parkhurst processing facility are breeding again after an unfortunate setback in September.
From our Ore to Your Door - Episode 7 - Mining Operations
QMAG currently mines 4 million tonnes of ore per year, from six to eight different pits.
We choose pits based on their magnesite content and contaminant concentrations. There are always at least two pits mined simultaneously to provide the Parkhurst plant with enough material at suitable quality to support our full suite of products.
From our Ore to Your Door - Episode 6 - Mining Pit Development
With exploration, drilling and planning complete, it’s time to start mining. First, surveyors stake out the boundary of the area to be mined. A clearing permit verifies that the area to be mined is within the active lease, has
been cleared by the local Land Council, and has the correct government permit to be mined. Now the pit development can begin.
Visitors to Kunwarara
We were thrilled to welcome Matthew Canavan and Michelle Landry to our mine last week! It was an exciting opportunity to give them an in-depth look at our "Ore to Your Door" process and share the remarkable stories of the local businesses that enrich our community.
