The MCA Victorian Division represents the interests of member companies operating, exploring and providing services to the minerals industry in Victoria.
The Victorian minerals industry has been an integral part of Victoria’s social and economic fabric for over 150 years and is critical to Victoria’s future.
A regional industry
Minerals projects play an important role in regional development within Victoria. Mining creates high paying jobs for regional Australians and supports a supply chain of small and medium sized businesses.
Significant gold mining operations include mining at Fosterville, Ballarat, Stawell and Costerfield.
Australia's only antimony mine located near Heathcote in Central Victoria.
There are a number of mineral sands projects at various stages of development. Victoria has the largest known mineral sand resources in Australia and there are a number of mineral sands projects in the pipeline in the Wimmera and East Gippsland. Victoria’s rich mineral sands, rare earth are key inputs for solar panels, wind turbines and batteries.
Exploration projects across the state in gold, lithium and base metals, including copper, are promising and have the potential to develop into new future mine projects.
