The AME Group is a global firm of independent economists in the metal and mineral
industries with research offices in Australia, Hong Kong and the United Kingdom and affiliations in North America, South America, Africa and China.
We specialise in all market and financial aspects of the aluminium, coal, copper, gold, iron ore,
DRI/HBI, steel, lead, zinc and nickel industries.
The value we offer is based on five key elements:
Rigorous Analysis
With almost 40 years experience, we consider AME to be pre-eminent as a firm of mineral economists.
Our hard won reputation is based upon exhaustive basic research of advanced projects, mines, smelters,
refineries and "end use" analysis.
Effective support from our analysts
Our clients receive a considered and experienced opinion on most major mineral resource projects and end users.
Critical mass in both manpower and resources
We can rapidly execute assignments and offer consistently rigorous industry analysis at realistic prices.
Thus, we have built wide acceptance for our work, reflected by our increasing market share.
Close industry connections
Our analysts are invariably technically qualified and usually have long experience with a major mining company.
Consequently, our detailed economic evaluations of mines, beneficiation projects and end user plants are unrivalled.
A comprehensive global view
We are comfortable operating in many lesser developed countries. This has been assisted by our technical
associations worldwide.
Since 1971 AME has served practically every major western world mining company, most major banks active in
the metals and mining industries and the majority of large trading houses and engineering companies.
Our analytical effort is supported by a comprehensive information unit. We undertake considerable basic
research and have collected a vast amount of data on the formation and history of the world's major resource projects.
We have also successfully backed our own analytical judgment in the past by managing or controlling three
substantial publicly listed companies. These companies were active in exploration in North America,
pipeline construction in Australia and general mining investment.
In recent years we have focused solely on building AME's metal and mining research services.
ELECTRONIC SERVICES
This year we will produce 26 major research works and 96 individual monthly Outlooks - but we know that
finding a particular study can be difficult in a big office. Now you can get all of our work via this site
using our proprietary browser software, AME Direct.
