History
The corporation was founded in 1982 to organise the newly nationalised mining industry, merging the previously state-owned National Phosphate Company with several smaller companies.

Controversy
The National Phosphate Company is considered responsible (along with previous Tiperyn miners) for causing massive environmental damage to Nideroccia by strip-mining the islands for deposits of phosphate ore, and completely exhausting the island deposits by 1935.

In 2014 the corporation was discovered to be involved with several contractors carrying out illegal mining operations in Baileneu Ma, in the contractors of these illegal mine sites had been engaging the services of PMCs to protect their operations against the local government militias. During the 2015 SWP press conference discussing the matter, the SNFMMC promised to cease their contracts with the illegal miners and surrender all information to the SWP.

In 2019 allegations were made against the SNFMMC that it had been using the ECOSEAS Peacekeeping mission in Santa Magdalena and Civil War to smuggle from the warzone. Contracting both Rarámuri and Muysca insurgent groups and Government forces for continued supply of looted minerals. The Corporation has vehemently denied these accusations
