"The Bligh Government is providing a boost to the mining industry with the release of new information to help stimulate mineral and energy exploration. New airborne geophysical survey data covering more than 200,000 square kilometres of the remote Cooper and Eromanga basins in Queensland’s south-west will be publicly available on 15 April. Mines and Energy Minister Stephen Robertson said the new data would help explorers to define exploration targets with greater certainty. “This major project involved three geophysical surveys of the Cooper and Eromanga Basins, covering approximately 12 per cent of the state,” Mr Robertson said."
