The Queensland Mining and Energy Bulletin is an independent voice on mining and energy for anyone working in the Queensland mining and minerals industry. A $22 billion coal project in Central Queensland’s northern Galilee Basin has attracted thousands of job-seekers who are hoping to gain a slice of the action. Adani Australia confirmed the total number of job applications for its Carmichael Coal Mine has topped a staggering 14,500, and 39 percent of applicants said they were unemployed at the time of registration. The company presented the figures as evidence the community supports the project, which has faced constant delays due to environmental concerns.
