METS test facilities database released

METS Ignited and the Queensland Government have jointly released a free online resource to help METS companies identify suitable facilities to test and commercialise innovative products and services.

This initiative is designed to bring researchers, METS and mining companies closer together to work on significant industry challenges.

The database was commissioned in response to industry feedback highlighting a lack of access to appropriate testing facilities as a barrier to commercialising innovative goods and services. The database maps all available mine and laboratory testing facilities in Australia.
