As well as the projects mentions from Chinchilla to Wandoan, much of the viability depends on rail and electricity supply to the region. I have been informed that the rail corrider will be officially resumed in March 2010, and during 2010, higher voltage electricity lines will go from a Chinchilla to sw of Wandoan, making the operations of the CSG and coal companies a reality, including QGC, Origin and Xstrata. I notice much focus has been set on residential property, and rural property has been overlooked. There are smaller ( 500 acre to 1500 acre) lifestyle grazing blocks located near QGC/ Origin/Linc/ Xstrata…that not only provide  passive income and tax benifits through grazing cattle or cropping ( or adjisting the land), but the demand will increase for rural lifestyle blocks, in a 20 klm vicinity to these opertations. As operations expand, the resource companies will aslo increase demand for these properties, and they prices!!
