Mount Isa City Council will showcase the potential of the North West Minerals Province with a conference in Brisbane on November 22-23.

Mayor Joyce McCulloch said the conference would demonstrate why Mount Isa and other regional centres in the North West Minerals Province were such great places to
live, work and invest.

“We are bringing our story on the road – we want to bring our story from Mount Isa direct to stakeholders, investors, and decision-makers from around Australia and the world and to share information about the enormous range of future opportunities,” Cr McCulloch said.

“We want to make sure people far and wide know what is happening in this region and the value and opportunity it and the wider North West Minerals Province creates every day for Queensland, Australia and the World. We want to build a network of champions.”

The conference is titled Australia’s Mount Isa and the North West Minerals Province: Showcasing Northern Australia’s Potential and will be held at the Hilton Brisbane.

It is expected to focus on opportunities within the resources sector throughout the North West Minerals Province, as well as lifestyle, health, education, tourism, agriculture, energy, infrastructure and transport sectors.
