Developing the Northern Territory's minerals industry
The Northern Territory is a key player in the rapidly evolving global minerals market, particularly for critical minerals essential to clean energy transformation.
The Minerals Industry Development team has responsibility for delivering mineral industry development outcomes as outlined in the Northern Territory minerals industry plan - pathway to 2030. The plan maps the vision, strategic priorities, and targeted activities necessary to sustainably realise the Territory’s mineral potential and advance the Territory towards a $40 billion economy by 2030 and beyond.
Key to this strategic plan is industry diversification, which recognises the desires, aspirations and expectations of Aboriginal Territorians in community and the opportunities presented by the Northern Territory’s minerals potential.
