The Minor Metals Trade Association (MMTA) is a not-for-profit organisation, which serves to benefit and promote the interests of its international membership, comprising companies actively involved in all aspects of the international minor metals sector. If your company has a commercial interest in these metals and would like to know more about the work of the MMTA, or if you simply wish to discover more about this intriguing group of metals, this site will provide answers to many of your questions.
The MMTA works by electing individuals from member companies who serve on various committees to represent the interests of the membership as a whole. Our work would not be complete if it were not for frequent communication between the committees and our members. To find out more about our Main Committee (Board of Directors) and our sub-committees, please click HERE.
The MMTA also organises a diverse range of events, the flagship event being the MMTA's International Minor Metals Conference, which combines quality presentations with unrivalled networking opportunities. Our Anniversary Dinner, held during London Metals Week, regularly attracts key industry figures, and is complemented by our programme of both social and educational events, often combining good food and good company with topics of interest to those within, or with an interest in, the sector. For details on all our forthcoming events please click on the Events and Bookings listing on the website.
