enviroMETS Qld

An independent, industry led NFP company focussed on finding new innovative and sustainable new ways of making mine impacted land more valuable to next custodians. enviroMETS™ (Qld) Limited has been formed to expand upon the 'Tailings & Mine Affected Water" Cluster initiated through a collaborative partnership between METS Ignited and the Queensland Government in 2018. eMQ is now an independent, industry-led, not-for-profit company. METS Ignited and the Queensland Government recognised many of Queensland’s operating mines have, or will have, reached the end of their productive life in the coming decades. As the 1200 or so abandoned mine sites attest, successful mine closure or economic post mining outcomes has traditionally been a challenge for industry. eMQ responds to the diverse range of challenges that may be overcome by adopting a successful collaborative approach to improve outcomes of mine affected land for industry, communities, and the environment. It is enviroMETS mission to research and devise innovative, and sustainable repurposing, recommercialising, and remediation solutions to ensure the land is valuable and usable to future custodians. Interested stakeholder groups representing; SME-Vendors; Academia & Researchers; Government & SOEs; Mining & METS Corporates; Capital Investors; and Communities. groups can participate in collaborative projects and events, commercial funding and support from a trusted independent broker. enviroMETS will develop a matrix of trusted go-to expertise of skills and experience in; Mine Lifecycle Planning; Geochemical & Mine Affected Water; Mine 'Waste' Reprocessing, Geotechnical & Tailings Storage Facilities; Mine Closure Management; and Governance/Policy/Regulatory Framework. A collaboration of these groups and expertise was designed to provide a conduit of innovative industry led solutions to government and mining companies.
