Major programs
Critical minerals
As a state rich in critical mineral deposits, Queensland is in a prime position to grow our mining, processing and manufacturing industries and create new revenue streams to benefit our communities and regions.
Queensland Resources Industry Development Plan
The plan sets out a pathway for a resources industry that will continue to create jobs and prosperity for generations to come—responsibly and sustainably.
What we do
We support landholders, businesses and the community to capitalise on Queensland’s land, mineral, petroleum and gas resources for sustainable economic prosperity and just outcomes.
Our vision: We will be an influential economic department that advocates in the public interest.
