Chamber calls on local business to embrace Adani and Downer Mining.

The Emerald Chamber of Commerce has called on local business owners to seek new opportunities with Adani and Downer Mining.  

Emerald Chamber of Commerce President, Victor Cominos said the local Council and business owners should eagerly pursue Adani and Downer Mining now that the State Government has announced that three mining leases have been approved for the Carmichael Mine site over the weekend.

The Emerald Chamber of Commerce has been promoting the local area since its founding in 1965.

“The Chamber has been championing the eventual opening of the Galilee Basin for a number of years as it did other coal mines in the past 50 years," he said.

“Emerald has more than adequate infrastructure to provide services during the construction period and thereafter at Carmichael Coal Mine site.

We need to be forever alert as with Adani there will be a huge jobs spinoff from the seven-year construction project.”

 

"Emerald has an oversupply of accommodation and people seeking employment who are ready and able to assist to get these new and exciting mining projects underway," Mr. Cominos said.

“Emerald has been the hub of the Central Highlands for many years, all roads lead to Emerald”

“We most certainly welcome the $21.7 billion project in the north of the Galilee Basin, and north-west of Emerald," Mr. Cominos said.
