    The future of Emerald Qld.

    It's reasonable to assume that increased supply will meet demand however, this is a healthy sign. The Central Highlands has a huge projected increase of population over the coming decade.

    The future of Emerald Qld.

    Hi smy7484, I first purchased in the Emerald market early 2010, and have recently increased my holding in Emerald by buying a new build. In relation to whether new or old, I guess it depends on your strategy and how much you have to spend. The new properties are more likely to attract...

    The future of Emerald Qld.

    I agree. There is some substantial infrastructure investment being poured into Emerald which should continue its establishment as a major regional hub. I think there is some huge upside to what is happening in the Galilee Basin to the west which will have a major impact on Emerald. There is...

    Hi csc2 thanks for the link. Yes...I think you do bring up a very valid point. I wanted to be involved in what was happening in the Bowen Basin and for those reasons you stated above I put my money into Emerald. However, I think you can mitigate against these risks if you have an...

    The future of Emerald Qld.

    Hi Gentle_Chief, once again great post mate. I'm also very bullish about the future of these markets in the Bowen Basin. As you've indicated mining activities in the Bowen Basin are strengthening on the back of China's insatiable appetite for coal. However, as you've indicated its not just...
