17th September 2012 By: Research Author

As part of its ongoing commitment to delivering timely and useful information on mining, Creamer Media has launched a new monthly report - the Australasian Mining Roundup, which is as a business and information tool for decision makers involved in the mining industry.

This report, which will be available to subscribers to Creamer Media's Research Channel Africa and Mining Weekly.com Research, will be published on a monthly basis, giving readers a synopsis of mining activity across Australasia during the past month.

The roundup presents the information in an easy-to-read disaggregated format, covering exploration and feasibility studies, projects, operations, corporate activity, general trends in the sector and details of Australasian companies operating in other countries. Each summary is preceded by a headline, highlighting the country and the type of activity involved.

The inaugural Australasian Mining Roundup includes details of Australia’s federal government approval of the development of the A$6.4-billion Alpha coal project, in Queensland; the Victoria region’s ban on coal seam gas exploration and the delay of BHP Billiton’s Olympic Dam and Peak Downs expansion projects.

The report draws on material published over the past 12 months and is a summary of other sources of information published in Engineering News and Mining Weekly, as well as information available in the public domain. The report does not purport to provide analysis of market trends.
