Statements of existing knowledge are compiled for known mineral, coal, hydrocarbon and carbon capture and storage (CCS) resources and reserves in the north Bowen Basin. This data guide illustrates the current understanding of the distribution of these key resource types within the north Bowen Basin region based on trusted information sources. It provides important contextual information on the north Bowen Basin and where additional details on discovered resources can be found. The north Bowen Basin contains 17 metallic mineral deposits, with the majority containing gold. The basin also contains 152 thermal and metallurgical coal deposits. Most coal deposits contain metallurgical coal. This basin contains most of Queensland’s metallurgical coal resources, although many of the deposits supply a mix of thermal and metallurgical coal (Blake et al., 2018). The north Bowen Basin hosts very large coal tonnages, with known black coal resources of approximately 47 billion tonnes. Significant hydrocarbon resources are known to exist in the basin, the majority being coal seam gas (CSG). The basin contains more limited reserves and resources of conventional oil and gas and oil shale. At this time, there are no active or planned CCS projects in the basin.

Publicly available geological data in the north Bowen Basin region are compiled to produce statements of existing knowledge for natural hydrogen, hydrogen storage, coal and mineral occurrences. This web service summarises potential mineral, natural hydrogen, coal and carbon dioxide geological storage in the north Bowen Basin region.

Publicly available groundwater data have been compiled to provide a common information base to inform environmental, resource development and regulatory decisions in the north Bowen Basin region. This web service summarises salinity, water levels, resource size, and surface water–groundwater interactions for the north Bowen Basin located within the north Bowen Basin region.

Publicly available baseline surface water data are compiled to provide a common information base for resource development and regulatory decisions in the north Bowen Basin region. This data guide captures existing knowledge of the catchments and watercourses overlying the north Bowen Basin, including streamflow quality and quantity, inundation and climatological data. Most of the north Bowen Basin falls to the east of the Great Dividing Range within the Fitzroy River catchment. The basin also includes part of the Burdekin River catchment and small parts of the coastal catchments of Styx and Burnett river catchments. The data on the catchments overlying the north Bowen Basin have been summarised at a point in time to inform decisions on resource development activities. Key data sources are available from the Water Monitoring Information Portal (Queensland Government), Water Data Online (Bureau of Meteorology), DEA Water Observations (Geoscience Australia) and Terrestrial Ecosystem Research Network.
