ARRC’s research capacity continues to grow as the Centre continues to host and expand its pool of leading researchers from CSIRO’s Petroleum Resources and Exploration and Mining Divisions, Curtin’s Departments of Exploration Geophysics and Petroleum Engineering as well as from industry and other government research collaborators. The location of this leading global research institution in Western Australia is fitting, given that the State produces two-thirds of Australia’s non-fuel minerals and about half of its petroleum. Western Australia is one of the great mineral provinces of the world and our thriving resources sector continues to drive the Australian economy. Record levels of mineral and petroleum exploration expenditure were experienced in 2007-08, resulting in Western Australia attracting 51 per cent of all mineral exploration expenditure and 72 per cent of all petroleum exploration expenditure in Australia.
