Imithombo yezokumbiwa phansi ebalulekile yezwe isikhulile, ngokusho kwedatha ekhishwe yi-GA Geoscience Australia engqungqutheleni ye-PDAC eToronto.

Ngo-2018, izinsiza ze-tantalum zase-Australia zikhule ngamaphesenti angama-79, i-lithium ngamaphesenti angama-68, iqembu leplatinamu nezinsimbi zomhlaba ezingavamile zombili zikhule ngamaphesenti angama-26, i-potassium ngamaphesenti angama-24, i-vanadium ngamaphesenti ayi-17 kanye ne-cobalt ngamaphesenti ayi-11.

I-GA ikholelwa ukuthi isizathu esiyinhloko sokwanda kwezinsiza ukukhuphuka kwesidingo kanye nokukhuphuka kokutholwa okusha

UKeith Pitt, ungqongqoshe wombuso wezinsiza, amanzi kanye nenyakatho ye-Australia, uthe amaminerali abalulekile ayadingeka ukwenza izingcingo eziphathwayo, izibonisi zekristalu eliwuketshezi, ama-chips, omagnethi, amabhethri nobunye ubuchwepheshe obusafufusa obuqhuba inqubekelaphambili yezomnotho nezobuchwepheshe.

Nokho, izinsiza zedayimane, i-bauxite ne-phosphorus zase-Australia zehla.

Ngezinga lokukhiqiza lika-2018, amalahle ase-Australia, i-uranium, i-nickel, i-cobalt, i-tantalum, umhlaba ongavamile kanye ne-ore inempilo yezimayini iminyaka engaphezu kwe-100, kuyilapho insimbi yensimbi, ithusi, i-bauxite, i-lead, ithini, i-lithium, isiliva ne-platinum yeqembu impilo yezimayini yeminyaka engama-50-100. Impilo yezimayini yemanganese, i-antimony, igolide nedayimane ingaphansi kweminyaka engama-50.

I-AIMR (Australia's Identified Mineral Resources) ingenye yezincwadi ezimbalwa ezisatshalaliswa uhulumeni ku-PDAC.

Engqungqutheleni ye-PDAC ngasekuqaleni kwaleli sonto, i-GA isayine isivumelwano sokusebenzisana ne-geological survey yase-Canada egameni likahulumeni wase-Australia ukuze kufundwe amandla amaminerali ase-Australia, kusho u-Pitt. Ngo-2019, i-GA kanye ne-Geological Survey yase-US nayo yasayina isivumelwano sokusebenzisana sokucwaninga okubalulekile kwezimbiwa. Ngaphakathi kwe-Australia, i-CMFO(iHhovisi Lokuqondisa Izimbiwa Ezimqoka) izokweseka ukutshalwa kwezimali, ukuxhasa ngezimali kanye nokufinyelela ezimakethe kumaphrojekthi abalulekile amaminerali. Lokhu kuzohlinzeka ngemisebenzi ezinkulungwaneni zabantu base-Australia bakusasa kwezohwebo nokukhiqiza.
