Malmbrytningen startade 1741 på berget Illuvaara, det berg som sedermera kom att kallas Gellivare malmberg för att sedan bara kallas Malmberget.
Malmberget var tidigare den befolkningstätaste orten i kommunen, men har under de senaste decennierna krympt i snabb takt; dels som följd av att mer och mer av samhället varje år hamnar innanför rasområdet, dels av en stor utflyttning.
I Malmberget finns en gymnasieskola, Välkommaskolan, och en distanshögskola, Kunskapsgruvan.

 SANDVIK DELIVERS BIG LEAP IN PENETRATION RATES IN WORLD'S BIGGEST RAISE-BORING PROJECT
The Malmberget scheme includes around 3500 metres of ventilation shafts 3.5 and 4.5 metres in diameter and 1500 metres of Ø 3.1 metre ore passes.
Among the many observations made by Svanberg was that a 13.5% increase in thrust permitted when the reaming heads were fitted with Sandvik cutters gave a 30% rise in penetration rate, indicating also that the raise-boring machine is utilized more efficiently when Sandvik cutters are used.
With the higher ROP of Sandvik reaming heads achieved with less torque and smoother rotation of the head against the rock, as described by the contractors in Kiruna and Malmberget, it is logical to assume a positive influence on the raise-boring system as a whole.
