UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED
- Victoria is the biggest exporter of mining equipment, technology and services (METS) in
Australia › ~1900 hundred METS businesses across Victoria employing 21,000 Victorians › Investment advice and financing, research and design, legal services, consulting, information and communications technology, engineering and construction › Melbourne is the financial and decision making hub for Australian mining, >100 mining and resources companies headquartered in Melbourne’s CBD
- The Victorian Government’s approach is to target prospective geological provinces at the pre-
competitive stage and undertake a coordinated set of activities to reduce exploration risk, encourage investment and build community confidence: › Build the geoscience understanding › Understand the natural resource and land use of the region › Engage local communities early › Develop enduring relationships with quality investors
WHY VICTORIA FOR MINING

Speaker's notes
UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED
- Geological framework/systems approach
› A more predictive approach for mineral exploration targeting › Tectonic and geodynamic setting (i.e. the geological configuration of eastern Australia)
- Gold
› Demonstrated world-class gold destination › Recent discoveries under cover (~50m) › No gold royalty
