Tablelands Mining Group

What Tablelands Mining Group does

Tablelands Mining Group (TMG) is a private Australian mining and minerals exploration company headquartered in Cairns, Queensland, operating in the Hodgkinson Province of Far North Queensland. Founded in 2015 and majority-owned by Fomento Resources, a diversified global mining group, TMG holds eleven Environmental Authorities and maintains an ISO 14001-aligned Environmental Management System. The company's primary project is a tin mineralisation target with potential to also unlock iron ore and fluorine deposits within a geological corridor extending ~500 km N-S and ~150 km E-W. Its broader project portfolio also includes critical minerals exploration and a Magnetite Washing Project for ore processing.

TMG's core operations are envisaged as a standard truck-shovel load-and-haul mining model, with a workforce recruited from the local Atherton Tablelands region and no requirement for specialised equipment. The company holds regulatory authorisation for storage, handling, and export of mineral commodities through Port Mourilyan (operated by Ports North, located ~12 km south-east of Innisfail), which is the only bulk commodity port within a 250 km radius of Far North Queensland. A Bankable Feasibility Study has been completed for a multi-use storage facility at the port, including a negative pressure storage shed and covered conveyor out-loading infrastructure.

TMG monetises through extraction and export of bulk mineral commodities — tin targeted at the clean energy transition market, alongside iron ore, fluorine, magnetite, and broader critical minerals. Pricing is set by global commodity markets and is not publicly disclosed. The company engages with Traditional Owners, landowners, and local communities for social licence, supports its operations via a corporate website and LinkedIn presence, and operates without disclosed subsidies, public listing, or external funding rounds. No revenue, headcount, or management team data is publicly available.
