This data is primarily collected and maintained by the Georesources Intelligence team using the industry public sources to highlight current and active mineral projects across Queensland with particular focus on critical and strategic minerals. Significant contributions and quality assurance are also undertaken by the Minerals Assessment Hub, Critical Minerals Queensland and the Reform and Strategy Delivery Office.

Critical minerals: the projects in this data are defined as a "critical minerals" project if that mineral is profiled in the Queensland Critical Minerals Prospectus, which as at 14 January 2025 includes the following primary commodities - copper, vanadium, silicon, tungsten, HPA, REE, and nickel-cobalt
Projects: projects in this dataset are those that are 'prospective' or 'in the investment pipeline' (i.e. they are not currently producing or are subject to a significant expansion/change in production). Note - some of the coordinates are limited to 2 decimal places and may have a lower accuracy for positioning.

Latitude and Longitude coordinates supplied to Spatial Information from Georesouces Intelligence team via a downloaded copy from the Minerals Project Pipeline dashboard. This data contained various bits of information and project information for Critical mineral projects. It was then converted to an XY Table in ArcGIS Pro with coord system of GDA2020. This table was converted to a spatial point layer within ArcGIS Pro using the XY Table to Point toolbox. In September 2025, extra field added with the Communication teams URLs for the Resources Projects pages.
In December 2025, access to the data was supplied from an Azure view of the required fields and using FME to create the spatial layer rather than the CSV and ArcGIS method. Extra fields were added including the company website's URL and mineral grouping, for additional information in the attribute table. A new web map and experience builder application was generated and this data was then re-named to Queensland Resource Projects as the data now includes more than just Critical Mineral Projects. This data also now covers for strategic minerals and any other mineral projects.
