The North-North West’s mineral and mining opportunities continue to expand, with an estimated $2.3 billion worth of investment in the North West Minerals Province expected to get underway between 2009/10 and 2014/15.
Expansions also look likely for the North Queensland region with the announcement of further gold mining to commence in the Charters Towers area, Australia’s richest goldfield. Citigold has recently announced its intention to commence work on a second tenement, which is expected to triple the yearly output of gold from 100,000oz to 300,000oz per annum.
