The city’s core industry is based around Xstrata Mount Isa Mines… a source of copper, silver, lead and zinc.  Xstrata Mount Isa Mines is one of the most productive mines in the world, and was recently awarded one of the state’s top honours when it was named the ‘Most Significant Business in Queensland’ as part of the Premier’s Smart Business Awards 2009.

But Mount Isa is not ‘just another mining town’… with strong educational, health, and commercial facilities, our city possesses the perfect balance of both business and lifestyle.  Mount Isa has long been a cornerstone of the economic development not only of the State, but of the nation, and continues to proudly exhibit what can be achieved in North-West Queensland... as well as what opportunities exist in the outback for those looking to live or invest.
