Association Minière du Québec Inc (AMQ), also known as the Mining Association, is an industry organization representing major mining companies. The private company is located in Canada. Its mission is to promote and support a responsible, sustainable, and engaged mining sector. AMQ members adhere to the Towards Sustainable Mining (TSM) initiative, which includes protocols on environmental stewardship, social responsibility, workplace health and safety, indigenous and community relations, and governance. The association facilitates annual self-assessments and external verifications of member performance, publicly reports results, and recognizes achievements with awards. AMQ supports workforce development by providing resources on education, internships, and employment opportunities, and promotes innovation and best practices within the industry. It organizes events such as an annual congress, provincial mining rescue competitions, and award galas to celebrate achievements in safety, environmental initiatives, community relations, and human resources. The association receives advisory input from its cercle des gouverneurs, a group of former board presidents.
