QMAG Milestones
Last week QMAG eagerly celebrated the milestones that our fellow team members achieved at our mining operations in Kunwarara.
These accomplishments were not taken lightly as the leadership team took on the very serious responsibility of cooking a BBQ feast for all the employees at our mine.
This quarter was important to us as a business, as employees have been achieving their 5, 10, 15 & 25 year anniversaries with QMAG.
We would like to take this opportunity to thank these valued team members for their dedication and hard work!
From our Ore to Your Door - Episode 8 - In Pit Screening
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.
