GMTL questions answered
Written from the latest data on this page. General information only, not financial advice.
How diversified is Global X Green Metal Miners ETF?
Global X Green Metal Miners ETF holds 54 securities, and its ten largest positions make up 49.6% of the fund, more concentrated than the 35.9% typical of Global ex-Australia equity funds. That makes it moderately diversified.
Its largest country exposure is Canada at 26.7%, based on holdings as at 2 Sept 2026.
Which ETFs does GMTL double up with most?
GMTL shares the most holdings with Betashares Energy Transition Metals ETF (XMET) (34% overlap), Global X Copper Miners ETF (WIRE) (34% overlap) and Global X AI Infrastructure ETF (AINF) (19% overlap). Overlap is the share of the portfolio the two funds hold in common, looking through to the underlying securities.
None of these overlaps is above half, so pairing GMTL with one of them adds some genuinely different holdings.
How is Global X Green Metal Miners ETF managed – active or passive?
Global X Green Metal Miners ETF is passively managed: it follows an index and holds what that index holds, rather than relying on a manager's stock picks.
Among Global ex-Australia equity funds, active funds charge a median 0.75% a year and index funds 0.45%.
What will I pay in fees for GMTL?
GMTL charges a management fee of 0.69% a year, about $69 for every $10,000 invested. Only 23% of the 471 ASX ETFs we track charge more, and the median fee is 0.44%. Among Global ex-Australia equity funds, the median is 0.55%.
Lower-cost funds with a similar focus include SPDR S&P World ex Australia Carbon Aware ETF (WXOZ) at 0.07%, SPDR S&P World ex Australia Carbon Aware (Hedged) ETF (WXHG) at 0.10% and Betashares Climate Change Innovation ETF (ERTH) at 0.65%.
If you would rather have a manager choose the investments, active options such as Munro Climate Change Leaders Fund Active ETF (MCCL) at 0.90% cost more.
The fee is taken from the fund's assets and is already reflected in its returns. You'll also pay brokerage when you buy or sell, and the bid-ask spread, which has averaged 0.37% for GMTL.
Does Global X Green Metal Miners ETF follow a theme?
Yes. Global X Green Metal Miners ETF focuses on clean energy and climate. Thematic funds are narrower than the broad market, so they can rise or fall much more than it does.
Other ASX funds with a clean energy and climate focus include SPDR S&P World ex Australia Carbon Aware ETF (WXOZ), SPDR S&P World ex Australia Carbon Aware (Hedged) ETF (WXHG), Munro Climate Change Leaders Fund Active ETF (MCCL) and Betashares Climate Change Innovation ETF (ERTH).
It also applies environmental, social and governance (ESG) screens, excluding companies that fail the issuer's ethical criteria.
What is under the hood of GMTL?
As at 2 Sept 2026, GMTL's ten largest holdings are Freeport-Mcmoran (9.7%), Teck Resources-B (8.7%), First Quantum (6.3%), Boliden AB (4.8%), Antofagasta PLC (4.0%), Ivanhoe Mines Lt (3.7%), Yunnan Alum-A (3.3%), Norsk Hydro ASA (3.3%), Lundin Mining Co (3.0%) and Sumitomo Met Min (2.9%). Together they make up 49.6% of the fund.
It follows an index; the issuer's PDS sets out how that index chooses and weights its holdings. Its top 10 weighting of 49.6% compares with 35.9% for Global ex-Australia equity funds.
How well has Global X Green Metal Miners ETF performed?
Based on its category, Global X Green Metal Miners ETF aims to grow your capital in line with the index it tracks.
To 23 Oct 2026, with distributions reinvested, it returned −2.8% over 1 year (median 6.3%; ranked 91 of 121) and 14.4% a year over 3 years (median 16.8% a year; ranked 57 of 82). The medians and rankings compare it with Global ex-Australia equity funds. Since listing in 2022 it has returned 3.6% a year.
Tracking difference is the gap between a fund's return and its index's return. We don't hold index returns, so we can't measure it for GMTL; the issuer reports it in the monthly fact sheet. As a guide, a well-run index fund trails its index by about its fee, here 0.69% a year, and a much bigger gap is a warning sign.
