A powerful name for a powerful moment. 💪
Last week, We had our official Mandang Welcome Ceremony in Skardon River at Metro's Bauxite Hills Mine.
Mandang, Metro Mining’s new tugboat, together with Metro's OFT Ikabma, is part of Metro’s 2024 expansion plan, a proud symbol of what we are building together in the upstream aluminium industry in Australia.
In the Ankamuthi language, Mandang means Strong 💪. And that word captures everything this moment represents — strength in our operations, strength in our relationships, and strength in our shared future with the communities of Cape York.
A heartfelt thank you to everyone who joined us to mark this special occasion:
✨ Ankamuthi community leaders;
✨ Directors and leaders at SRAC, OAMC and NPARC;
✨ Member for Cook, David Kempton;
✨ AAC Director, Margi Johnson;
✨ Metro Mining Board Members;
✨ Metro's business parters: TSA, BMG, Ports North, Skytrans, Torres Air;
✨ Representatives from QLD Gov and Dept. of Resources, AMEC.
Thank you for being part of this journey with us. Strong partnerships. Strong future. Mandang. 🚢
