Who We Are
About ASMA
Our Purpose
Connecting Two Nations Through Minerals
The Australian-Saudi Mineral Alliance serves as a strategic platform connecting Australia's world-leading mining expertise with Saudi Arabia's ambitious Vision 2030 mining sector development. We facilitate meaningful partnerships that unlock opportunities for Australian companies to participate in one of the world's most dynamic emerging mineral markets.
Australia possesses unparalleled technical capabilities in exploration, sustainable mining practices, processing technologies, and operational excellence. Saudi Arabia offers vast untapped mineral resources, strategic geographic positioning, and substantial investment capital aligned with long-term development goals. ASMA bridges these complementary strengths, creating pathways for collaboration that benefit both nations.
We operate as a neutral facilitator and trusted advisor, navigating the cultural, regulatory, and commercial complexities inherent in cross-border partnerships. Our role is to make the seemingly difficult accessible—connecting Australian innovation with Saudi opportunity, and transforming strategic alignment into tangible outcomes.

Strategic Context
Why Australia-Saudi Collaboration Matters
Global Energy Transition
The world's shift toward renewable energy and electric vehicles creates unprecedented demand for critical minerals. Australia and Saudi Arabia both possess resources essential to this transition, and collaboration strengthens supply chain security for global markets.
Complementary Strengths
Australia brings technical excellence, operational experience, and sustainable mining practices. Saudi Arabia offers untapped mineral wealth, strategic capital, and ambitious development frameworks. Together, these strengths create opportunities neither nation could achieve alone.
Economic Diversification
Vision 2030 positions mining as a cornerstone of Saudi Arabia's economic diversification beyond hydrocarbons. Australian companies possess the expertise to accelerate this transformation while accessing new markets and investment partnerships.
