About The AusIMM

The New Zealand Branch is one of 28 branches of the AusIMM and has approximately 220 members. A brief history of the Branch is available.  In addition to enjoying the benefits of the AusIMM, the New Zealand Branch has several local activities including:
  • Annual Branch conference typically attracts 250-300 delegates
  • Local technical and social meetings in some main centres
The Branch is active in promoting education mainly through three award schemes:
  • Scholarships awarded for research to students enrolled at Tertiary Education institutions, through the AusIMM New Zealand Education Endowment Trust
  • A cash prize for best student paper presented at the Annual Branch Conference
  • Prizes awarded to minerals related projects in the regional School Science Fairs

The Branch committee is responsible for organising these activites and has an annual budget and Business Plan.
