  • Gold in Central Queensland
    73 GOLD OCCURRENCES IN CENTRAL QUEENSLAND Extract from the Queensland Mining Guide No attempt is made in this portion of the Mining Guide to deal with the past history of the various mining fields or to describe the many mines being worked in the State. The object rather is to show - both to the individual prospector and to the mining investor - some of the mining possibilities of each of the districts mentioned, passing reference being made to particular mines in certain cases only. Slight reference only has been made to geological features. The relative importance of deposits and districts mentioned cannot be gauged by the lengths of the references in these notes. On many of the old fields the conditions are well known, or can be ascertained at the main centres. Special attention has been drawn to some of the lesser known fields. Any person or company desirous of obtaining further details in relation to any of the nines, deposits, or localities referred to should communicate with the Department of Natural Resources, Mines and Energy Brisbane, or with the nearest Warden, Inspector of Mines, or District Geologist. General area covered by this report The Reworking of Deposits The fact that certain ore-bodies were worked years ago and were abandoned does not necessarily imply that such deposits cannot be worked profitably under different conditions. The metal market is always a primary factor in deciding the success or 1:250 000 scale maps failure of mining ventures. The utilization of First edition 1968/75 modern methods of mining and treatment may bring renewed life to some mines.

  • 4.0 Overview of the Regional Surface and Subsurface Geology of the Duaringa Basin
    Duaringa Basin Report on Hydrological Investigations 4.0 Overview of the Regional Surface and Subsurface Geology of the Duaringa Basin 4.1 Introduction The surface geology of the Duaringa Basin project site and surrounding environment is characterised by the surface exposures of the Tertiary age Duaringa Formation sediments and surrounding exposures of the Permian age sediments (Figure 4.1). The Duaringa Formation is composed of interbedded mudstones, shale, oil shale siltstone and lignite beds and rare sandstone, conglomerate and basalt beds (Day et al., 1983). The Permian age sediments are part of the Bowen Basin stratigraphic sequence. The overlying Tertiary age Duaringa Formation does not form part of the formal Bowen Basin stratigraphic sequence. The surface exposures of the Duaringa Formation can be differentiated into recent exposures and older lateritic tablelands. There are also some small outcrops of Tertiary age volcanics exposed through the Tertiary age and Permian age sediments present in and near the Duaringa Basin. The significant rivers, such as the Mackenzie River and Dawson River, which traverse the Duaringa Basin, have deposited large volumes of alluvial sediment in broad braided plains on both the Duaringa Formation and Permian age sediments. The Duaringa Basin along with the Biloela Basin and Hillsborough Basin formed during the opening of the Coral Sea during the Eocene between 52 and 34 million years ago (SRK, 2008). These basins are bounded by NE to SW trending bounding faults along their western margins. Movement along these faults is largely sinistal (left lateral). However, there has been significant downward movement on the eastern side of the fault blocks, which has opened deep asymmetrical grabens (Veevers and Powell, 1994).

This corporate plan seeks to deliver strategies that will build sustainability into our communities, manage key challenges such as the impact of climate change and respective government policy and legislative response to climate change. Our economy and community need to adapt and transition as digitisation changes both our workplace and our community. This corporate plan also seeks to respond to the changes in our society as it becomes more transitory, more culturally and ethnically diverse and older.

  • PROGRESS REPORT - 23 JULY, 2020 Funding of Priorities Identified and Advocated Through the Inland Queensland Roads Action Project (IQ-RAP)
    PROGRESS REPORT - 23 JULY, 2020 Funding of Priorities Identified and Advocated through the Inland Queensland Roads Action Project (IQ-RAP) Page 1 INTRODUCTION TO THE INLAND QUEENSLAND ROADS ACTION PROJECT (IQ-RAP) The IQ-RAP was developed through consultation and engagement with local governments and industry peak bodies. Regional Roads Forums were convened in December 2013 in Longreach and in August 2014 in Mount Isa with participants coming from across inland Queensland. Regional Development Australia Townsville and North West Queensland (RDA) was requested and agreed to be the Secretariat and raised funds from partners in 2015. Funding support was forthcoming from 33 local governments that covered 82% of Queensland’s area, RACQ and 5 Regional Development Australia Committees. A Project Steering Committee was formed and consultants the Harrison Infrastructure Group (HIG) were engaged. In February, 2016 the Inland Queensland Roads Action Plan was launched. This was followed by extensive advocacy to the Australian and Queensland Governments and peak industry bodies through to mid-2018. In mid-2017 IQ-RAP partners agreed to extend the project and update the Plan into a new Inland Queensland Road Network Strategy, taking into account the funding commitments that had been made to priorities identified in 2016, carrying over the priorities that still required funding and updating the Multi- Criteria Analysis with new information. 28 local governments, 5 Regional Development Australia Committees and RACQ provided on-going funding support. Further extensive advocacy was undertaken. This document summarises the funding that has been secured for priorities identified and advocated through the Inland Queensland Roads Action Project (IQ-RAP) and the two major reports that were prepared by Harrison Infrastructure Group (HIG) and Regional Development Australia Townsville and North West Queensland (RDA).
