  • What’s holding Australia back from leading the world in critical minerals?

    What’s holding Australia back from leading the world in critical minerals?
    Aug 28 2024

    GHD Advisory’s Phil Baker, thinks it’s clear - Australia must urgently prioritise infrastructure investment to strengthen its critical minerals sector. At the forefront is the need to significantly enhance infrastructure development to support processing, refining, transport energy, water, community capabilities, and beyond. If Phil had $10 billion to invest in Australia’s critical infrastructure, he’d go all-in on supporting industry mineral clusters to supercharge Australia’s critical minerals sector. The goal? Maximise impact and drive explosive growth. To make it happen, federal and state governments need to focus on development of compelling de-risked business cases with haste to attract investment.
