Australia brimming with Critical Minerals investment opportunities

  • The Hon Madeleine King MP, Minister for Resources, Minister for Northern Australia

    Today we are releasing the Australian Critical Minerals Prospectus which showcases 52 high-quality, investment ready critical minerals projects.

    Projects ripe for funding include mining, processing and value adding opportunities across the critical minerals supply chain, all of which would see more jobs for Australians.

    The Albanese Government is committed to transitioning to a net-zero economy, and Australia’s critical mineral resources will be vital in the global shift to green technology such as solar panels, electric vehicles, and wind turbines.

    The latest Prospectus showcases projects from the new Critical Minerals List as well as Australia’s capability to meet rising global demand in critical minerals while building supply chain security.

    Independent research has found that Australia continues to be the most attractive region globally for mining investment, with its secure economy, backed by strong exports, services, and a stable regulatory environment.

    The Australian Government is actively supporting investment in critical minerals projects, including through the recently expanded $4 billion Critical Minerals Facility.
