Creating new opportunities for mining equipment in Australia
QLD Metal Trading delivers secure, fully traceable, end-to-end cable recycling solutions to Australia's leading mining companies. We help our partners reduce waste, recover maximum value from end-of-life assets, strengthen ESG performance, and advance circular economy outcomes across mining operations.
Turnkey recycling solutions with real world products
QMT was established to provide the Australian mining industry with a more sustainable and transparent approach to cable recycling and asset recovery.
After identifying that much of Australia's mining cable waste was being exported to offshore processing facilities with limited visibility over environmental outcomes, we saw an opportunity to create a local solution that delivers both commercial value and measurable sustainability benefits. By processing materials in Queensland, we provide clients with fully traceable recycling pathways, transparent reporting, and confidence that their end-of-life assets are being managed responsibly.
Today, QMT partners with mining companies across Australia to recover and recycle cables and related assets, supporting circular economy outcomes while helping clients achieve their ESG and sustainability objectives. Our services extend beyond recycling to include asset valuation, lifecycle consultancy, cable removal assessments, and long-term asset management solutions.
With extensive industry experience, a commitment to safety and compliance, and a focus on delivering practical outcomes for our clients, we have built a reputation as a trusted partner to the mining sector. Through clear reporting, responsible resource recovery, and innovative recycling solutions, we help organisations maximise asset value while minimising environmental impact.
As Australia's mining industry continues to evolve, QMT remains committed to delivering sustainable, transparent, and locally managed solutions that create lasting value for our clients, communities, and the environment.
