Queensland critical minerals project development

Overview

Mining development in Queensland has transitioned from corporate growth planning to receiving direct government financial support. Initially, companies like QMines outlined strategies to develop copper-gold assets, such as the Mt Chalmers site, to establish multi-mine hubs.

Subsequently, the Queensland government utilized its expanded Critical Minerals Fund, through the Queensland Investment Corporation (QIC), to accelerate these projects. QMines secured $15 million to complete a Definitive Feasibility Study for the Mt Chalmers project, while Aeon Metals received $20 million for the Walford Creek project to fund feasibility studies and resource expansion drilling.
