About AusIMM

AusIMM (The Australasian Institute of Mining and Metallurgy) is the leading professional association for resources sector professionals across mining, metallurgy, geoscience and related disciplines. Based in Carlton, Victoria, Australia, AusIMM provides professional membership, Chartered and professional recognition pathways, continuing professional development (CPD), conferences, technical publications, training courses and industry advocacy. Members range from students and graduates to senior industry leaders, and the organisation operates both in Australasia and globally via branches, online services and events.

A charge from AusIMM may appear on your bank or card statement if you have paid for or renewed a professional membership, registered for a conference or event, purchased a short course or online training, or bought publications or other professional resources through ausimm.com. Some charges relate to annual membership fees, which may be set to auto-renew each year, while others are one-off payments for specific conferences, workshops, exams or professional development programs. You may also see a pending or provisional charge if you recently updated your payment details or initiated a new registration, as some banks briefly hold funds to verify your card.

If you’re unsure about an AusIMM charge, first log in to your account at ausimm.com and check your membership, event registrations, order history and invoices in your profile or account/billing section. Compare the date and amount on your statement with any recent renewals, event registrations or course enrollments. For further questions, contact AusIMM directly via the support/contact section on ausimm.com, attaching a screenshot of the charge (with card details hidden) and your membership or registration number if you have one. If you believe the transaction is in error or duplicated, ask AusIMM to review and, if appropriate, process a correction or refund; if you still cannot identify the charge, you can then contact your bank or card issuer to dispute it.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why was I charged by AusIMM when I already paid my membership this year?

AusIMM memberships are generally billed on an annual cycle, and many members enable automatic renewal so their professional status and access to benefits are not interrupted. If you recently upgraded your membership grade, added a chapter or networking group, or changed from a discounted rate (for example, student or recent graduate) to a full professional rate, you may see a new or adjusted charge. Log in to your ausimm.com account and review your membership section for your renewal date, membership type and any recent changes that could explain the new amount.

What types of AusIMM charges are usually recurring versus one‑off?

Annual professional membership fees are the most common recurring AusIMM charge and may renew automatically each year if you’ve agreed to auto-renewal. One-off charges typically relate to conference registrations, short courses and workshops, examinations, webinars, and purchase of technical publications or reports. You might also see separate one-off payments for add-ons like networking functions, field trips, or optional conference dinners that you selected during registration.

What are typical amounts I might see for AusIMM charges on my statement?

Amounts can vary widely depending on what you purchased: annual membership fees differ by grade (for example, student, graduate, professional member, fellow) and whether any concessions apply, while major conference registrations and multi-day courses are usually higher one-off amounts. Smaller transactions may relate to webinars, short online training modules or single technical papers. To see the exact price you agreed to, check your email confirmations and invoices from AusIMM or log in to your account on ausimm.com and review your order or billing history; current pricing for memberships and events is also listed on the relevant pages of their website.

How do I cancel or stop auto‑renewal of my AusIMM membership so future charges don’t occur?

To cancel or change auto-renewal, sign in to your account at ausimm.com and go to your membership or billing settings. There you can usually disable automatic renewal or choose not to renew for the next period; you may also be able to update or remove stored payment methods. Because membership fees are typically charged at the start of the membership year, it’s best to turn off auto-renewal before the next renewal date shown in your account. If you can’t find these options online, contact AusIMM member services through the contact or support page and request that auto-renewal be removed from your account.

How can I request a refund or change for an AusIMM conference, course or membership charge?

Refunds and changes depend on the type of product and AusIMM’s specific terms and conditions for that item. For conferences and courses, there is often a deadline before which you can cancel or transfer your registration (sometimes with an administrative fee) and after which refunds may be limited or unavailable. Membership fees are usually non-refundable once the membership period has commenced, but you may be able to downgrade for the next year or adjust add-ons. To request a review, contact AusIMM via the support or contact form on ausimm.com with your full name, invoice or order number, event name (if applicable), and an explanation of your request.

Why do I see a small or pending AusIMM charge that later disappeared or changed?

Some banks show a temporary authorization or pending charge when you update your card, register for an event, or make a payment through ausimm.com. This is used to verify that your card is valid and that sufficient funds are available; it may appear as a small amount or as the full event/membership fee in pending status. Once AusIMM finalizes or voids the transaction, the pending amount should either convert to the final charge or drop off your account, typically within a few business days. If a pending charge remains unusually long or you see both a pending and a posted charge for the same item, contact your bank and AusIMM support for clarification.

How do I confirm which AusIMM account or email address a charge is linked to?

If you work for a company or are involved in multiple professional activities, you may have more than one AusIMM-related transaction (for example, a personal membership and a company-paid event registration). Start by searching your email inboxes (including work and personal accounts) for recent messages from “AusIMM” or “ausimm.com,” such as invoices, receipts, or event confirmations that match the date and amount of the charge. If you still can’t locate it, contact AusIMM via their website support channels and provide the last four digits of the card, the exact amount, transaction date, and your possible email addresses; they can usually identify which profile or registration the payment was applied to, subject to privacy and security checks.
