The Irish Mining and Quarrying Society was founded in 1958 to provide a focal point for all those working in the extractive industry in Ireland. Our aim is to promote, safeguard and represent the natural resources and extractive industries.
The membership is drawn from all sectors of the industry, ranging from exploration geologist to equipment suppliers and, as such, is recognised as a significant representational body with over 200 full Society members. It has a unique role in Ireland as a forum and network for contact between the different branches of the industry, enabling it to reflect the industry views in a co-ordinated manner.
