Minister for Natural Resources and Mines, Minister for Manufacturing and Minister for Regional and Rural Development The Honourable Dale Last
The Crisafulli Government is committed to securing the ongoing operations of the Mount Isa copper smelter and Townsville refinery, because we back the workers, businesses and communities that rely on them.
The Queensland Government has tabled a responsible offer of support to help protect local jobs and ensure the long-term future of these critical operations.
Glencore is currently considering this offer.
The Federal Government must now come to the table and do its share to protect jobs in North Queensland.
