The Mozambique Chamber of Mines (CMM) is a formal private sector organization that aims to represent the entire mining sector in Mozambique.

It was founded in 2012 by some large international mining companies, including the Kenmare Resources, ENRC and Grafite Kropfmühl groups.

The aim of establishing the chamber was to coordinate private sector actors in the sector, represent their interests to the government and improve the image of mining in Mozambique.
