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.

Our visitors had the chance to see firsthand how QMAG operates and how we contribute to the local economy. It was a wonderful moment to connect and expand their understanding of the vital role QMAG plays in the region.

A big thank you to Matt and Michelle for their time and interest. Together, we’re building a brighter future for our community!

Disclaimer: We want to clarify that QMAG is committed to community growth and transparency, without any political affiliations. Our goal is to showcase the innovative work we do and the amazing businesses we support right here in our area.
