Minerals and energy resources sector in Queensland economic impact study

This report provides a detailed summary of the level of expenditure into the Queensland economy by the minerals and energy resources sector (termed as the resources sector throughout the report) in 2009‐10 and the multiplier and consumption effects that are generated by that initial stimulus. While the resources sector¹ makes a significant contribution to the Queensland and Australian economies, information about the impacts of the sector on regional and metropolitan economies within Queensland is limited.
