DALE LAST: Queensland is doing the heavy lifting

Minister for Natural Resources and Mines, Minister for Manufacturing and Minister for Regional and Rural Development Dale Last joined Jess on this episode of Digging Deeper with @ The Coalface. Dale joins Jess fresh after a Coal Industry Event in Brisbane, a report earlier this year from Future Coal showing the international demand for our coal, and Coal Australia releasing their very first annual Coal Report breaking down the data not only state by state, but region by region and town by town on how crucial coal is.Coal isn't the only topic on the agenda on this episode; there's plenty of chat about critical minerals, gas and oil. Don't forget to leave us a rating and a review, and if you have an idea for a podcast guest send Jess an email: jess@thecoalface.net.au
