Metro Mining Limited is an independent bauxite producer and explorer operating the wholly owned Bauxite Hills Mine on Queensland's Weipa bauxite plateau. It produces high-alumina bauxite for direct shipment to customers in large ore carriers, supporting aluminium supply chains while contributing employment and economic activity in Cape York and Far North Queensland.
The company announced on November 9, 2026 that it shipped 752,000 wet metric tonnes in October 2026, lifting year-to-date shipments to 4.765 million tonnes. Mining productivity improved after September disruptions, supported by additional staffing, record stripping activity, commissioning of two dry-screening plants and maintenance completed on the offshore terminal and loading facility, resulting in faster vessel loading and stronger operational performance.
