Thank you for your list. It's a shame there isn't anything about prime agricultural land on it. WIM Resource, the Chinese owned mining company in question, plans to extract up to 490 tonnes of ore exclusively for China. This includes rare-earth minerals and other valuable minerals including rutile and zircon. Minister, why is the Albanese government and the Allan Labor Victorian government allowing a Chinese mining company to extract these precious materials for their country instead of engaging an Australian mining company to extract them for our country?
