About CMA Australia

The Critical Minerals Association Australia will aim to favourably position Australian companies involved in the critical minerals value chain to compete effectively on the global stage.  

We will aim to give industry a unified voice at both State and Federal levels to address challenges facing critical minerals companies. 

Members will have the opportunity to take part in our working groups that will focus on addressing issues facing the industry. 

International Reach

The Critical Minerals Association Australia is part of the Critical Minerals International Alliance (CMIA), an overarching body coordinating the domestic-focused associations: CMA Australia, CMA UK, and CMA USA. We are also partnered with the Canadian Critical Minerals and Materials Alliance (C2M2A). 

Domestic Associations

Each domestic association is independent. This allows all of our CMA's to put their members' and nation's needs first while benefitting from an international network.
