Executive Summary
A desktop review of the existing extractive resource and mining areas identified in The Noosa Plan
2006 as well as review of state planning requirements has been undertaken to inform the
preparation of the new planning scheme.
Information from the State Planning Policy, Guidelines and interactive mapping site, Queensland
Globe, Department of Natural Resources and Mines, past studies, aerial photography, proposed
planning scheme amendments and resolutions of Council, development approvals and discussion
with development assessment officers have arrived at the following recommendations for the new
planning scheme to deal with state interests and local planning matters:
State interests
1. Identify KRA 56 and 57 in the strategic framework and mapping, including strategic and
specific outcomes for the protection of KRAs from encroachment of sensitive land uses and
incompatible development.
2. Ensure the zoning of the KRA is consistent with protecting the KRA from sterilisation by
sensitive or incompatible landuses.
3. Include KRA 56 and 57 in an Extractive Resources and Mining overlay with code outcomes
that ensure development is compatible with the use of resource / processing area of the
KRA. Sensitive landuses and incompatible development are assessed against overlay code
provisions relating to its compatibility with the use of the KRA as an extractive industry.
4. Discuss with the Department of Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning the best
approach for dealing with mining resources. Discuss the option of referring to mining
leases, mining claims and mineral development licences on the State’s Mines Online
Mapping (MOM), rather than identifying mining leases in the planning scheme. This allows
for changing circumstances and mining lease approvals to be up to date without amending
the planning scheme.
Local matters
5. Make clear statements in the Strategic Framework regarding extractive industry and mining
in Noosa Shire. Make specific reference to the use, extent and transport routes for
resources.
6. Identify local resource areas, including separation areas and transport routes in the
Extractive Resources and Mining Overlay code with relevant local provisions.
7. Include the following sites as mining lease1 and local resource areas in the Extractive
Resource and Mining Overlay:
o Nandroya (subject to current lease renewal approval)
o Glenwood (subject to current lease renewal approval)
o McGilchrist’s Pits (300 Kennedy’s Road only – review boundaries)
o White Pit (subject to review of future use of the site)
8. Exclude the following sites as local resource areas from the Extractive Resource and
Mining Overlay:
a. Ringtail Creek
b. Kin Kin Creek sand
c. McGilchrist’s Pits (309 Kennedy’s Road)
1
Designation as mining lease is subject to further discussion with the State regarding the potential use of the
Mines Online Mapping site as the mining overlay.
2
Section 5
9. Exclude the following mining lease designations from the Extractive Resource and Mining
Overlay:
a. McGilchrist’s Pits (309 Kennedys Road)
b. Brogden’s Pit
10. Include measures in the planning scheme to avoid conflicts between mining resource
development and haulage routes with other land uses, such as identification of local
resource areas and buffers. Consideration should also be given to demand for the resource
and other competing landuses for the site.
11. Prepare an Extractive Industry use code - including specific measures for site planning,
separation and amenity, noise, vibration, transport routes, access and vehicle
manoeuvring, separation distances, site drainage and stormwater management,
landscaping, management of operations, hours of operation public safety and site
rehabilitation.
1. Introduction
The purpose of this planning report is to review the current extractive resource and mining areas
identified in The Noosa Plan 2006, review relevant state and legislative requirements and make
recommendations for the new planning scheme.
1.1 Resources and mining in Noosa Shire
Noosa Shire contains a number of natural resources, including deposits of clay and shale, quarry
rock and sand that have been identified and / or exploited over the years. The deposits have
largely supplied raw material for the construction industry. In particular, large deposits of clay
supplied the Cooroy Brickworks up until its closure in 2010.
Two state significant key resource areas (refer to 2.1) are located in Noosa Shire. Seven (7) locally
significant resources and eleven (11) mining leases are also identified under The Noosa Plan 2006
(Appendix 1).
Since the preparation of The Noosa Plan there have been no new key resources areas, local
resource areas or mining leases identified in the Shire and a number of mining leases have
expired.
Currently both the quarry rock KRAs are operational at Ringtail Creek and Wahpunga Range and
the local clay resource at Nandroya is also active.
Seven (7) mining leases identified in The Noosa Plan are still valid, two (2) are under application
for renewal and two (2) have expired.
Demand for resources for the purpose of local processing for construction materials is reducing in
Noosa, demonstrated by the closure of the Cooroy Brickworks. Future demand for clay and sand is
unlikely to increase with projected growth in Noosa over the next 20 years being low. Significant
sand resources south of Noosa, particular at Meridan Plains are also available.
It is likely there will be continued demand for quarry rock to meet local road construction and
maintenance requirements.

Section 6
1.2 Protecting state significant resources
The Queensland State Government has identified that a strong resources industry is vital to
Queensland’s economy and that a growing state requires economical access to essential raw
materials to support its construction and infrastructure sectors.
The State Planning Policy Guidelines for Mining and Extractive Resources identifies the need to
protect resources stating:
the extraction of raw materials such as rock, sand, gravel and clay provides essential raw
materials needed to support new infrastructure, build roads, houses, hospitals, airports and
rail lines. Encroaching urban development can constrain the ability of industry to cost
effectively supply the sand, gravel and aggregate required to support infrastructure and
construction.
In general, quarries can only economically provide materials to their own local and regional
communities. As quarry material needs to be sourced locally from particular geological
areas, the suitability of a particular extractive resource for its intended purpose can mean
that the potential locations of suitable extractive resource deposits are highly limited.
Extractive resources are bulky and of relatively low value, so that transport forms a major
component of the end price paid by customers.
Because of their economic importance to the state, significant extractive resources, known as key
resource areas (KRAs) are protected from development that could impact on their long-term
viability.
1.3 Definitions
The Sustainable Planning Act (SPA) Regulation defines extractive industry under the Queensland
Planning Provision (QPP) as:
a premises used for the extraction and/or processing of extractive resources and
associated activities, including their transportation to market.
The Mineral Resources Act 1989 defines a mineral and mining (in short):
A mineral is a substance normally occurring naturally as part of the earth’s crust or
dissolved or suspended in water on or within the earth’s crust and includes clay, foundry
sand, coal seam gas, limestone, marble, petroleum.
Mining means to carry on an operation with a view to, or for the purpose of, winning mineral
from a place where it occurs, or extracting mineral from its natural state, or disposing of
mineral in connection with, or waste substances resulting from, the winning or extraction.
A full definition is contained in Appendix 2.
1.4 Approvals process
Development proposals for extractive industries (i.e. a quarry) are regulated and assessed under
the provisions of the planning scheme. Council is the assessment manager and developments are
assess through the Integrated Development Assessment System (IDAS).
Coal, mineral, petroleum and gas (including coal seam gas) resources are the property of the
Queensland government. The approval processes for exploration and development of these
resources, including issuing mining leases, is governed and decided by the state in accordance
4
Section 7
with its resources legislation. Notwithstanding this, planning schemes need to consider these
resource developments.
2. Past background studies
There have been a number of background studies and investigations into extractive resources in
Noosa Shire. Over time, the number of resources identified as being significant enough for
protection through the planning scheme have reduced from an early identification of 37 sites to 9
sites (including KRAs) identified under The Noosa Plan.
The background studies have helped to inform the recommendations in the site assessment in
section 5 and the recommendations for a site’s inclusion or exclusion from the new planning
scheme.
A summary of the key findings of the relevant background is outlined below.
2.1 Extractive & Clay Mineral Resources of Noosa Shire 1997 (updated
2002)
This study was conducted in 1997 to provide data and support for the planning scheme, describing
the extent and analysis of existing resources within Noosa Shire. 37 resource sites of strategic
importance were examined, finding 14 of 37 were deserving of long term resource protection. The
remaining sites were considered of little strategic importance. Ratings were applied based on size
and quality of resource, proximity to market users, accessibility, land use conflict, biophysical
values and scenic amenity.
2.2 Protection of Mineral and Extractive Resources in Noosa Shire- Willmott
& Stephens 2001
In 2001 the Protection of Mineral and Extractive Resource in Noosa Shire report identified that
planning protection should be given to two deposits of quarry rock and 2 deposits of sand and a
number of clay deposits to supply Cooroy Brickworks. The resource areas and buffers identified in
the report were:
Clay:
The report identified the operation of the Cooroy Brickworks at that time required protection of a
number of clay deposits to ensure sufficient supply for its operation in the longer term.
Nandroya, White Pit, West Ridge and McGilchrist's pits - mining leases to avoid potential
conflicts with other land uses.
Glenwood Pits (Louis Bazzo Dr), Nursery Road and Ringtail Creek deposits to provide
sufficient resource for the longer term.
A buffer area was recommended of 200m around these deposits.
The report stated the above deposits were sufficient to supply Cooroy brickworks for the next 20
years and if things changed at the brickworks this should be reassessed.
No specific protection was proposed for Brogden’s Pit as the resource was identified as small and
there were widespread alternative supplies.

Section 8
Quarry rock:
Ringtail Creek - with a 1km buffer and haul route.
Wahpunga Range Kin Kin
Sand:
Kin Kin Creek Sands protection warranted until further investigations.
Johns Road due to lack of sand resources in the Shire
2.3 Kin Kin Sand Resource – Report on Commercial Viability of Sand
Extraction – EcoRoc 2005
In 2005 Titanium Noosa Pty Ltd commissioned a report on the viability of sand extraction on their
land at Kin Kin Creek, as they proposed to develop the site for an eco-resort. The report concluded
commercial extraction of sand was not viable and heavily constrained for the following reasons.
the sand resources are shallow;
some sand resources are coincident with and close to protected riparian vegetation;
the sand resources have a relatively high fines content and cannot be used in high value
applications such as concrete without substantial washing and processing to remove
deleterious materials such as clay and silt fines;
the need to wash sand introduces further environmental impacts and constraints;
commercial sand extraction would also generate visual, noise and other amenity impacts;
existing transport routes for sand haulage from the site are inadequate;
these constraints limit the market area and market applications for the sand to lower value
fill and bedding applications within the Noosa Shire;
known resources, if extracted, would have an estimated life of 16 years, and it would take
13 years for cost recovery to occur;
the sand deposits are not therefore commercially viable when applying typical extractive
industry investment criteria;
the site is not included as a Key Resource Area under the draft State Planning Policy for
Protection of Extractive Resources.
2.4 Review of Viability of Extractive Sites Sunshine Coast Regional Council –
Groundworks 2012
In 2012 a review of locally significant extractive sites was undertaken to inform the preparation of
the Sunshine Coast Regional Council planning scheme, two sites were located in Noosa Shire –
Kin Kin Creek and John’s Road Cooroibah.
The conclusions reached for each site were based on:
Resource quantum and quality potential resource
Proximity to market
Site access
Environmental impacts
Likely stakeholder issues
Local and regional resource availability
Market factors and any other issues as they arose.
The report concluded:
6
Section 9
Kin Kin Creek – is not viable based on resource size and economics and likely cost of road
upgrades. The report concluded the resource not be considered in the SCRC new planning
scheme as a viable resource of regional significance. (This conclusion was also based on Meridan
Plains to the south providing sand for the region).
Cooroibah (Johns Road) – not viable in the long term because of reducing product quality,
increasing production costs, groundwater / surface water issues, acid sulphate soils issues and
practical extraction requirements ie. removal of material below the water table. The report
concluded the resource not be considered in the SCRC new planning scheme as a viable resource
of regional significance.
(Note: This site is not identified in The Noosa Plan 2006 and has now been exhausted).
3. Legislative context
3.1 Sustainable Planning Act 2009 (SPA) and Regulation
The Sustainable Planning Act 2009 identifies extractive deposits as a “core matter” to be
addressed in the preparation of a planning scheme. Extractive deposits are recognised resources
or areas of economic value, described as valuable features. SPA recognises the important
economic development and employment generation opportunities associated with mineral and
extractive natural resources.
The State Planning Policy (SPP) identifies how state interests need to be addressed in planning
schemes.
3.2 Planning Act 2016
The Planning Act 2016 was passed in Parliament in May 2016. Although not yet enacted, it will
have influence over the new planning scheme. The Act states that advancing the purpose of this
Act includes—
(c) promoting the sustainable use of renewable and non-renewable natural
resources, including biological, energy, extractive, land and water resources that
contribute to economic development through employment creation and wealth
generation…
The working draft of the Planning Regulations indicates the existing State Planning Policy 2014
would continue under the new regulations.
3.3 Other relevant Acts
The state’s resources legislation comprises:
Mineral Resources Act 1989
Geothermal Energy Act 2010
Geothermal Exploration Act 2004
Greenhouse Gas Storage Act 2009
Petroleum Act 1923
Petroleum and Gas (Production and Safety) Act 2004.
7
Section 10
The Environmental Protection Act 1994 also has a major role in the regulation of extractive
activities to prevent or minimise environmental harm. Extractive activities above a certain scale
are environmentally relevant activities (ERA’s) under the provisions of the Act and associated
regulations
3.4 State Planning Policy (SPP) and Guidelines – Mining and extractive
resources
Mining and extractive resources are identified as a matter of state interest for landuse planning and
development under the State Planning Policy (SPP) . The State Planning Policy Guideline (SPP
Guideline) outlines how the policy is to be integrated into planning schemes. It seeks to ensure
plan making and development assessment decisions protect important extractive resource
deposits from encroachment by sensitive land uses and other potentially incompatible land uses. It
also seeks to ensure planning schemes give due consideration to the presence and potential
impacts of mining and resource development in their areas.
To integrate this state interest into the new planning scheme, the differing legislative environments
relating to extractive resources (such as quarry rock, sand, gravel and clay) and coal, minerals,
petroleum and gas resources need to be recognised.
The State interest identified under the SPP states:—
mineral, coal, petroleum, gas, and extractive resources are appropriately considered in
order to support the productive use of resources, a strong mining and resource industry,
economical supply of construction materials, and avoidance of land use conflicts wherever
possible.
There are 3 state interest policy areas to be integrated into the new planning scheme.
8
Section 11
3.4.1 Extractive resources
KRAs identify extractive resources of state or regional significance which the state considers
worthy of protection for future use under the SPP. The significance is determined by the
Department of Natural Resources and Mines, in accordance with the criteria detailed in Part 3:
Extractive resources—criteria for state significance of the SPP guideline. KRAs are made up of
both existing quarry sites and undeveloped sites.
The purpose of identifying key resource areas is to protect extractive resources from incompatible
land uses. The key resource area is a designation not a development approval for extracting the
resource. Two key resources areas are identified in the SPP in Noosa Shire:
KRA 56 – Ringtail Creek, (Appendix 3) and
KRA 57 – Wahpunga Range (Appendix 4)
The State Planning Policy Guideline outlines the composition of a KRA as having four parts:
Resource/processing area—the extent of the extractive resource and any operational areas
associated with the extraction and processing of the resource.
Separation area—the area surrounding the resource/ processing area that is required in to
maintain separation from people who may be affected by residual impacts such as noise,
dust and ground vibrations of existing or future extractive operations within the
resource/processing area. This area is designed to maintain an adequate buffer between
extractive operations and incompatible uses.
The minimum distance is 200 metres for resources that don’t require blasting or crushing to
extract (sand, gravel and clay) and 1000 metres for hard rock resources as blasting and
crushing of material is required. In some cases the separation area may be less than the
minimum distances in consideration of local features such as topography or existing
development commitments.
Transport route—the route used to transport extracted resources to market. The transport
route is a road or a rail link from the boundary of the resource/processing area to a major
road or railway.
Transport route separation area—the area surrounding the transport route needed to
maintain separation of people from undesirable levels of noise, dust and ground vibration
produced as residual impacts from the transportation of extractive material.
9
Section 12
The distance is measured 100 metres from the centre line of the indicated transport route
for a KRA.
3.4.2 Mining
The Queensland Government regulates the allocation of land and resources for the exploration
and mining of minerals, coal, petroleum and gas. Permits for mining are regulated and managed by
the state through key mining legislation (section 3.3). Mining is not assessed against the planning
scheme and local government is not the assessment manager.
Permits for exploration and mining are issued for set periods and are conditional on demonstrating
a planned and structured program of activity and meeting environmental conditions.
Permits can be divided into four types reflecting the differing levels of approved activity:
exploration permits
production permits (eg. Mining leases)
infrastructure permits
information permits.
Typical rights and obligations under a permit include:
the right to explore for, or extract, the mineral, petroleum or energy resource
in a safe and responsible manner
the obligation to manage the resource/s appropriately, including
compensation to landholders and native title holders as appropriate
the obligation to pay royalties to the state for the mineral, petroleum or
energy produced
the obligation to rehabilitate or restore areas disturbed by operations.
The Department of Natural Resources and Mines - Local Area Mining Permit Report – 8 May 2016
- Noosa Shire identifies the following coal exploration, mineral production and infrastructure
permits in Noosa Shire (tables 3.1, 3.2 and 3.3).
Note: The Noosa Plan only identifies mineral production permits (mining leases) on the Natural
Resources Overlay. Coal exploration and infrastructure permits are not currently shown in the
Noosa Plan but will need to be given consideration in the new planning scheme.

Table 3.3
3.4.3 Implications and recommendations for new planning scheme
The SPP Guidelines identifies how planning schemes should integrate the state planning policy.
The approach outlined is the SPP with regard to extractive industry and mining is recommended
for the new planning scheme as follows:
Extractive industry
Identify KRAs in the strategic framework and mapping, including strategic and specific
outcomes for the protection of KRAs from encroachment of sensitive land uses and
incompatible development.
Ensure zoning of the KRA is consistent with protecting the KRA from sterilisation by
sensitive or incompatible landuses.
Include KRAs in an extractive resource overlay with code outcomes that ensure
development is compatible with the use of resource / processing area of the KRA.
(Sensitive landuses and incompatible development are assessed against overlay code
provisions relating to its compatibility with the use of the KRA as an extractive industry).
Mining
Despite mining not being regulated under the planning scheme, the SPP requires planning
schemes give consideration to known mineral, coal and petroleum and gas resources and existing
or proposed resource development proposals.
Where possible measures should be included in the planning scheme to avoid conflicts between
the resource development and haulage routes with other land uses, such as identification of local
resource areas and buffers. Consideration should also be given to demand for the resource and
other competing landuses for the site.
11
Section 14
The Noosa Plan 2006 currently identifies mining leases that were approved at the time of the
plan’s preparation. A local resource area and buffer is identified around these mining lease areas
in all cases but one.
The status of mining leases change over time and it is difficult for planning scheme mapping to be
up to date and keep pace with changing circumstances because of the lengthy planning scheme
amendment process.
Some newer planning schemes have recently met this state interest requirement by referring to
mining leases, mining claims and mineral development licences on the State’s Mines Online
Mapping (MOM)2, rather than identifying mining leases in the planning scheme. This allows for
changing circumstances and mining lease approvals to be up to date without amending the
planning scheme.
It is recommended further discussion on this matter be undertaken with the Department of
Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning for the best approach.
3.5 South East Queensland Regional Plan 2009-2031
The SEQ Regional Plan has relevance for plan making and development assessment. Natural
Resources are addressed in Desired Regional Outcome 4; within the Regional Plan that intends to
‘manage natural economic resources to sustainable and efficiently meet the needs of
existing and future communities’.
It seeks to:
coordinate and manage the use of natural resources to enhance community,
economic and environmental values.
manage natural economic resources to sustainable and efficiently meet the needs of
current and future communities.
identify and protect extractive and mineral resources for potential future, including
transport corridors.
In preparing the new planning scheme consideration will be given to the SEQ Regional Plan
desired outcomes. There are no specific implications for the new planning scheme arising from the
SEQ Regional Plan above and beyond the SPP.
3.6 The Noosa Plan 2006
Local government is the assessment manager for extractive industry applications and The Noosa
Plan is the assessment tool for these resource developments Extractive industry is impact
assessable under The Noosa Plan. In summary:
The Desired Environmental Outcomes in The Noosa Plan state in relation to extractive and mining
resources states–
Renewable natural resources are used sustainably and non-renewable natural resources
are used prudently. The use of natural resources does not have significant adverse impact
upon other land uses.

Mines Online Maps (MOM) minesonlinemaps.business.qld.gov.au maintained by the Department of Natural
Resource and Mines.

Section 15
Extractive resources are shown on the Planning Scheme Strategy Map and identified in the Natural
Resource overlay. The Natural Resources Overlay Code deals with development and identifies
resource processing, separation and haulage areas.
Extractive industry is defined as an Industrial Business Type 3 Extractive –
Winning from the land (or the bed of a watercourse) gravel, rock, sand, soil, stone, or other
similar materials. The use class includes the treatment of those materials to produce a
varied product. The term does not include the use of premises for an activity authorised
under the Mineral Resources Act 1989.
The Business Use code contains limited provisions to assess extractive industry development
dealing with proximity to Noosa River, haulage routes, visual impacts on roads and rehabilitation.
The Noosa Plan identifies two Key Resources Areas (KRA’s 56 & 57). Seven (7) locally significant
resources and eleven (11) mining leases shown in Table 3.4 (and Appendix 1).

3.6.1 Draft amendments to The Noosa Plan
In August 2015, Council publicly notified draft amendments to The Noosa Plan. The amendments
include changes to the Natural Resources Overlay mapping for KRA 56 and 57 and additional
provisions in the Natural Resources Overlay Code to be consistent with the SPP requirements.
The amendments also include changes to the Business Use Code assessment requirements for
extractive industry including more comprehensive provisions for buffers, separation and amenity,
management of operations, landscaping, hours of operation, traffic and transport and rehabilitation.
Following public notification of the draft amendments, at its meeting on 19 November 2015 Council
resolved to:
Write to the Department of Infrastructure, Local Government and Planning requesting a
review of KRA 57 (Wahpunga Range), specifically suggesting that a more locally
appropriate separation area be determined having regard to topographical features that
may provide a natural buffer.
In response to this resolution, a letter requesting a review of the separation area boundary of KRA
57 was forwarded to the Minister.
13
Section 16
The draft Amendments are currently with the Department of Local Government and Planning
awaiting approval. See Appendix 5 for the draft amendments.
3.6.2 Recommendations for new planning scheme
As already noted, the new planning scheme must integrate state interests with the recommended
approach outlined in section 3.4.3.
To adequately assess extractive industry and ensure sensitive landuses are not impacted by local
resources and mining it is recommended the new planning scheme:
Identify local resource processing areas, separation areas and transport routes in the
Extractive Resources and Mining Overlay code with relevant local provisions.
Include measures in the planning scheme to avoid conflicts between mining resource
development and haulage routes with other land uses, such as identification of local
resource areas and buffers. Consideration should also be given to demand for the resource
and other competing landuses for the site.
Prepare an Extractive Industry use code - including specific measures for site planning,
separation and amenity, noise, vibration, transport routes, access and vehicle
manoeuvring, separation distances, site drainage and stormwater management,
landscaping, management of operations, hours of operation public safety and site
rehabilitation.
Note: Recommendations for the identification of local resources in the planning scheme are
identified in section 4.
4. Site assessment
An assessment of the local resource areas and mining leases currently identified in The Noosa
Plan 2006 has been undertaken and recommendations made with regard to their inclusion or not in
the new planning scheme.
A discussion on the key resource areas in section 4.1 is also included for information purposes
only, as the SPP requires that KRAs be reflected in the planning scheme.

sloping ridge elongated along a north-westerly direction. It is partly forested.
Significance:
The site is currently identified as a Key Resource Area and provides material for construction of
roads for Council.
Although present production levels are small, the location of the resource close to Noosa’s urban
area and the shortage of alternative sources will ensure its strategic significance, given the
considerable distance to quarry rock resources outside of Noosa Shire. The resource could extend
to a considerable depth, as it is an intrusive body, allowing considerable deepening.
The rock is suitable for all classes of road gravel.
Separation Area:
The boundary of the separation area is set at 1000 metres from the western, southwestern and
northern sides of the resource. The proximity of small subdivisions to the southeast constrains the
separation distance to 500 metres in that area. The south-eastern flank of the ridge would need to
be retained to screen operations from that direction.
Transport Route:
The transport route is along Ringtail Creek Road onto McKinnon Drive and then to the Noosa
market area.
Constraints to exploitation:
Whilst the quarry is in operation there are potential conflicts with the rural residential development
and access to McKinnon drive.
Special Considerations:
The KRA contains areas of ‘of concern’ vegetation under the Vegetation Management Act 1999, an
area of endangered, vulnerable or rare species and forms part of the state significant Diaper State
Forest – Peregian bioregional wildlife corridor. The resource/processing area is adjacent to a site
of indigenous cultural significance which includes a ceremonial ground. Some parts of the
separation area and a small portion of the resource/processing area are covered by Strategic
Cropping Land Trigger Mapping.
Recommendation:
KRA 56 is one of only 2 quarry rock resource identified in Noosa Shire and is a state significant
resource identified as a key resource area under the SPP. The site will meet future local demand
for quarry rock.
As required by the SPP include KRA 56 in new planning scheme.

4.1.2 Wahpunga Range Key Resource Area (KRA 57)
Location:
33 Murrays Road (1/RP190074), 69 Murrays Road (2/RP190074), 150 Sheppersons Lane
(258/MCH187), 900 Sheppersons Lane (259/MCH187), 1174 Pomona Kin Kin Road
(205/MCH18), 134 Gympie Kin Kin Road (200/MCH3259), and 68 Gympie Kin Kin Road (3/RP164
822), Kin Kin.
The resource is located approximately one kilometre east of Kin Kin, and is accessed via
Shepperson’s Lane via the Gympie to Kin Kin Road.
The Noosa Plan designation
17
Section 20
Extractive resource:
Quarry Rock
Status:
Operational – The operator submits there is in excess of 30 years of hard rock remain. Up to 12
million tonnes in the currently approved extraction area.
Approvals & permits:
There is a valid 1987 court approved Town Planning Consent. Approval exists only on
Sheppersens’ land (150 & 900 Sheppersen’s Lane -259 & 259/MCH187). Approval is valid until
2033 sunset clause.
On 26 July 2012 Council approved an amended Quarry management plan. At its meeting on 19
May 2016 Council considered changes to the approval by the court.
Extractive resource description:
A large elongate body of fresh to moderately weathered intrusive andesite occurs in the Wahpunga
Range east of Kin Kin. The deposit occurs as a ridge extending southeast from the Gympie to Kin
Kin road onto private property. The intrusion is 150 metres wide. Drilling and testing indicated
suitability for bitumen screenings and road pavement gravels. Suitability for concrete aggregate
has not been confirmed.
Significance:
The site is identified as a Key Resource Area. In the past Council extracted rock for use in road
works. The site is now operated by another entity.
Although present production levels are small, the scarcity of other resources close to growth areas
in Noosa Shire and adjoining regions means it is of strategic significance for many years.
Significant resources are present and the deposit is considered by the State to be the most
important in the Noosa area, although disadvantaged by distance from markets.
Separation Area:
The resource is sited on a high ridge, and will need to be worked by the retreating tree line method
to optimise extraction from the intrusive dyke. The residential areas of Kin Kin lie about 1000
metres west of the northern end of the resource, so the full distance has been adopted for the
whole separation area. The surrounding country is zoned as Rural therefore a separation distance
of 1000 metres around the resource was adopted.
Note: Council has requested the Minister amend the separation area boundary to reflect a more
locally appropriate boundary having regard to the topographical features of Wahpunga Range that
provide a natural buffer.
Transport route:
The transport route uses the eastern part of Shepperson’s Lane and then onto Gympie to Kin Kin
Road. This is the council approved transport route. There are community held concerns with the
suitability of this road. There are also noise impacts on the health retreat on this road in terms of
noise from truck movements. An assessment of the haul route suitability would be required for any
changes to the current approval.
Special considerations:
Some parts of the separation area and a small portion of the resource/processing area are covered
by Strategic Cropping Land Trigger Mapping.
Constraints to exploitation:
Exploitation of deposits on the higher slopes of Wahpunga Range will have an adverse effect on
visual amenity – particularly from Kin Kin – Gympie Road and Cootharabah Road.
18
Section 21
Access to the Bruce Highway and the haulage route is a constraint. There are potential land use
conflicts along the haulage route from noise and vibration from truck movements.
Recommendation:
KRA 57 is one of 2 quarry rock resources in Noosa Shire and is a state significant resource
identified as a key resource area under the SPP. The site will meet future local demand for quarry
rock.
As required by the SPP include KRA 57 in new planning scheme.
Assess the suitability of the haul route in any future changes to the current operations of the site.
Note: Amend buffer area to reflect Council request to the Minister using Wahpunga range as a
natural buffer (subject to a response from the state).

Section 22
4.2 Local Resource Areas and mining leases
4.2.1 Ringtail Creek
Location:
Located in the state forest from Ringtail Creek to Cooloothin in the north. 997/FTY1936 – Ringtail
State Forest.
Extractive resource:
Clay & shale
Status:
Not operational
Approvals and permits:
None
Extractive resource description:
Myrtle Creek sandstone & residual clay
Significance:
This is the largest of the residual clay deposits in the Shire. Whilst it is large it is only considered to
be of minor importance particularly with closure of the Cooroy Brickworks and low levels of
construction growth in the Shire and demand for the resource.
Separation Area:
The separation area is 200 m around the boundary of the local resource processing area.
Transport route:
The haulage route identified for the KRA 56 could be used as the haulage route from the site.
Special considerations:
The site is in a water resource catchment overlay area, contains an environmental protection
corridor and riparian buffer area in the biodiversity overlay and covenants over these areas, and is
included in the bushfire hazard overlay.
State interest include biodiversity, water quality and natural hazards risk and resilience.
Constraints to exploitation:
Exposure to McKinnon Drive and the location of rural residential development will limit potential
use of the resource adjacent to the road. The site is large enough to commence operations well
away from rural residential development and with direct access to the haul route identified for KRA
56 to the south.
20
Section 23
Recommendation:
It is recommended Ringtail Creek local resource area be excluded from the new planning scheme
for the following reasons:
whilst the local resource area is very large, it is of little significance given other clay
deposits in Noosa Shire;
demand for clay resources is low noted by the closure of the Cooroy Brickworks.
the site has considerable environmental constraints and forms part of the Ringtail State
Forest.
there are no current or proposed mining leases on the site.
4.2.2 Nandroya
Location:
Holts Road Cooroy (4SP266739)
West of Bruce Hwy and Holts Rd 2km south of Cooroy.
Extractive resource:
Clay and shale
Status:
The site continues to be in operation with changes in the landscape over the last few years-
however the lease is now expired and a renewal application has been lodged.
Approvals and permits:
Mining lease ML3696 expired 30/9/15.
Robert Bros Pty Ltd have lodged a mining lease renewal to the Department of Natural Resources
and Mines.
Extractive resource description:
Large deposit of clay and was a resource for the Cooroy Brickworks. The resource is in the Lake
Macdonald catchment.
Significance:
The site was an important raw material supply for the Cooroy brickworks since 1960 and was
significant at that time. Its level of significance to brickworks is now reduced because of its closure.
The site is noted as a mining lease and local resource processing area and separation area in the
Noosa Plan.
21
Section 24
Separation Area:
The separation area is 200 m around the boundary of the local resource processing area.
Transport route:
There is no transport route mapped for this site.
Special considerations:
The site is in a water resource catchment overlay area, contains an environmental protection
corridor and riparian buffer area in the biodiversity overlay and includes land in the bushfire hazard
overlay. Covenants cover the areas in the environmental protection areas.
State interest include biodiversity, water quality and natural hazards risk and resilience.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that Nandroya be included in the new planning scheme as a local resource area
and mining lease for the following reasons:
the mine has been operational over the last few years with notable changes in the
landform.
a mining lease renewal is currently lodged with the Department of Natural Resources and
Mines.
4.2.3 McGilchrist’s Pits
Location:
McGilchrist's Pits – CSR building Productions Pty Ltd., 300 Kennedy’s Road Lake Macdonald
3/SP108094 (south site) , 309 Kennedy’s Road Lake Macdonald –112/MCH793 (north site)
Extractive resource:
Clay and shale
Status:
Not operational
Approvals and permits:
300 Kennedy’s Road 3/SP108094 -Mining lease -ML3742 (expires 30/6/2027).
22
Section 25
2012 MCU 12-0216 – approval was given for a quarry, the extracted material is proposed to be
used as fill. CSR are seeking to include their other site – White Pits in the Urban footprint and use
the extracted material from 300 Kennedy’s Road to fill the site.
This operation has not commenced.
309 Kennedys Road, mining lease ML3671 expired 24/7/14.
Extractive resource description:
This is the largest tertiary clay deposit in Noosa Shire.
Significance:
The site was significant as a tertiary clay deposit and was a major resource and of importance to
the former Cooroy Birckworks which is now closed. The site is no longer operational and there is
no current lease over 309 Kennedy’s Rd.
The site’s significance to CSR has somewhat changed from a supply source of clay for the brick
works to a supply source for fill of their other landholding at White Pit.
The Noosa Plan currently identifies this area as a local resource area, separation area and mining
lease.
Separation Area:
The separation area is 200 m around the boundary of the local resource processing area.
Transport route:
Transport separation area around Lamonts Road
Special considerations:
The site contains environmental protection corridors and riparian buffer areas in the biodiversity
overlay and bushfire hazard. State interests include biodiversity, water quality and natural hazards
risk and resilience.
Constraints to exploitation:
The site was exploited for many years when the brickworks were open. There could be some
conflict of landuse with the encroaching residential development if it was to begin operations again.
Recommendation:
300 Kennedys Road
It is recommended 300 Kennedy’s Road be included in the new planning scheme as a local
resource area and separation area as the mining lease and MCU approval for extraction is still
current. Realign the local resource separation area.
309 Kennedys Road
It is recommended 309 Kennedy’s Road be excluded from the new planning scheme as the site is
not operational and there is no current mining lease on the site.

Preliminary development application discussions have occurred between CSR and Council
officers. CSR are seeking to expand the Urban Footprint and fill these sites for 200 urban
residential lots using fill from 300 Kennedy Rd.
Extractive resource description:
This is the largest tertiary clay deposit in Noosa Shire. It is a large resource that was of former
importance to Cooroy Brickworks.
Significance:
This Noosa Plan currently identifies this area as a local resource area and separation area and
mining lease.
The site was of significance to Cooroy Brickworks in the past but with its closure the significance is
reduced, particularly now the owners are looking at fill and redevelopment opportunities.
Separation Area:
The separation area is 200m around the boundary of the local resource processing area.
Transport route:
There is no identified transport route.
24
Section 27
Special considerations:
The site contains some areas of environmental protection and bushfire hazard under the overlays.
State interests include biodiversity, water quality and natural hazard risk and resilience.
Recommendation:
It is recommended White Pit continue to be included as a local resource area and separation area
and mining lease until such time as there is a decision on the future of the site, as the mining
leases are still valid.
The future use of White Pit can be considered as part of preparing the new planning scheme and
should involve engagement with the local community.

Department of Natural Resources and Mines which indicates an intention to keep the site active.
Approvals and permits:
CSR Building Products Pty Ltd. ML3709 expired on 31/5/16.
A renewal lease is currently lodged with the Department of Natural Resources and Mines.
Extractive resource description:
Small area of light firing clays
Significance:
The site has some significance as a resource for light firing clays.
This is noted as a mining lease over part of the local resource processing area, local resource
processing area and separation area in The Noosa Plan 2006.
Separation Area:
The separation area is 200 m around the boundary of the local resource processing area.
25
Section 28
Transport route:
No transport route has been identified in The Noosa Plan.
Special considerations:
The site contains some areas of environmental protection and bushfire hazard under the overlays.
State interests include biodiversity, water quality and natural hazards risk and resilience.
Recommendation:
It is recommended that Glenwood be included in the new planning scheme a local resource area
and separation area, subject to the mining lease being approved.
4.2.6 Kin Kin Creek
Location:
Kin Kin Creek (between Gympie, Kin Kin Rd and Dr Pages Road).
2SP149484, 1RP817498, 1RP885196, 2RP885196, 4SP239219, 383M371134, 4MCH3264,
249MCH618, 3RP893389, 4SP149484, 4SP239219, 4RP836655, 4RP894914, 5SP129690,
1RP849541.
Extractive resource:
Sand, gravel, loam
Status:
Not commenced or active.
Approvals and permits:
None
Extractive resource description:
Large sand resource in the area where Kin Kin Creek discharges onto the broader plain.
Significance:
This is noted as local resource processing area, local resource processing area and separation
area in The Noosa Plan 2006. The site is not identified as having regional or state significance as a
KRA under the SPP.
26
Section 29
Whilst there are sand resources in the southern end of the Sunshine Coast region at Meridan
Plains, long term sand resource for Noosa Shire is in limited supply.
Separation Area:
The separation area is approximately 500 m around the boundary of the local resource processing
area
Transport route:
No transport route has been identified
Special considerations:
The site contains waterways, environmental protection, riparian buffer areas and is partly within a
water catchment under the overlays. Separation areas are in the bushfire hazard overlay. There
may be downstream impacts on the Noosa River if the site was to be developed. Drainage and
stormwater management is a key issue.
Recommendation:
It is recommended the Kin Kin Creek sand resource be excluded from the new planning scheme
for the following reasons:
the reducing demand for sand resources in Noosa given its projected low growth;
extensive availability of sand resource south of Noosa;
the site contains no approval or permits and is not operational;
the site’s distance to market and identified lack of commercial viability;
environmental constraints and potential environmental impacts.
4.2.7 Brogden's Pit
Location:
334 Old Tewantin Road Tewantin 137/MCH392
Extractive Resource:
Brick clay
Status:
The site is abandoned and appears to have not had activity for some time. There is regrowth
occurring.
Approvals and permits:
27
Section 30
There is no mining permit for the site. ML3751 expired 28/2/2010.
Extractive resource Description:
Weathered sandstone which is used for an additive to the brick clay.
Significance:
The Willmott Report in 2001 proposed no specific protection for Brogden’s Pit as the resource was
small and there was widespread alternative supplies of the resource. The Noosa Plan 2006 does
not identify the site as a local resource but does identify the mining lease.
Separation areas:
There are no separation areas.
Transport route:
There are no transport routes.
Recommendation:
It is recommended Brogden’s Pit not be included in the new planning scheme for the following
reasons:
the site was not identified as significant in the 2001 Willmott report;
the site has not been active for some time;
the mining lease expired over 6 years ago;
the site is not identified as a local resource in The Noosa Plan.
4.3 Recommendations for new planning scheme
The following recommendations are made with regard to the inclusion or exclusion of resources to
be identified and protected in the new planning scheme:
12. Include KRA 56 and KRA 57 in the Extractive Resource and Mining Overlay consistent with
the SPP mapping.
13. Include the following sites as mining lease3 and local resource areas and separation area in
the Extractive Resource and Mining Overlay:
o Nandroya (subject to current lease renewal approval)
o Glenwood (subject to current lease renewal approval)
o McGilchrist’s Pits (300 Kennedy’s Road only – review boundaries)
o White Pit (subject to review of future use of the site)
14. Exclude the following sites as local resource areas from the Extractive Resource and
Mining Overlay:
o Ringtail Creek
o Kin Kin Creek sand
o McGilchrist’s Pits (309 Kennedy’s Road)
15. Exclude the following mining lease designations from the Extractive Resource and Mining
Overlay:
o McGilchrist’s Pits (309 Kennedys Road)
o Brogden’s Pit
16. Make clear statements in the Strategic Framework regarding extractive industry and mining
in Noosa Shire. Make specific reference to the use, extent and transport routes for KRAs
and local resources.
3
Designation as mining lease is subject to further discussion with the State regarding the potential use of the
Mines Online Mapping site as the mining overlay.

(a) any type of clay;
(b) foundry sand;
(c) coal seam gas;
(d) limestone;
(e) marble;
(f) a product that may be extracted or produced by an underground gasification process for
coal or oil shale (mineral (f)) and another product that may result from the carrying out of
the process (also mineral (f));
Examples of underground gasification processes—
combustion, consumption, heating, leaching and reaction
Example of another product—
gas desorbed as a result of an underground gasification process
(g) peat;
(h) salt, including brine;
(i) oil shale;
(j) silica, including silica sand;
(k) rock mined in block or slab form for building or monumental purposes.
(3) Despite subsections (1) and (2)—
(a) clay (other than kaolin and bentonite) is only a mineral if it is mined for use for its
ceramic properties; and
Examples of uses of clay for its ceramic properties—
• for brick or tile making
• for pottery making
(b) limestone, silica and silica sand is only a mineral if it is mined for use for its chemical
properties; and
(c) mineral (f) is only a mineral if—
(i) the coal or oil shale, from which it is extracted or produced, is held under a
mineral development licence and it has been added to the licence under section
208; or
(ii) the coal or oil shale, from which it is extracted or produced, is held under a
mining lease and it is specified in the lease; and
(d) each of the following is not a mineral—

be used, or to be supplied for use, as sand, gravel or rock, whether intact or in
broken form;
(ii) living matter;
(iii) steam or water.
Meaning of mine
(1) Mine means to carry on an operation with a view to, or for the purpose of—
(a) winning mineral from a place where it occurs; or
(b) extracting mineral from its natural state; or
(c) disposing of mineral in connection with, or waste substances resulting from, the winning
or extraction.
(2) For subsection (1), extracting includes the physical, chemical, electrical, magnetic or other way
of separation of a mineral.
(3) Extracting includes, for example, crushing, grinding, concentrating, screening, washing, jigging,
tabling, electrowinning, solvent extraction electrowinning (SX–EW), heap leaching, flotation,
fluidised bedding, carbon-in-leach (CIL) and carbon-in-pulp (CIP) processing.
33
Section 36
(4) However, extracting does not include—
(a) a process in a smelter, refinery or anywhere else by which mineral is changed to
another substance; or
(b) testing or assaying small quantities of mineral in teaching institutions or laboratories,
other than laboratories situated in the area of a mining lease; or
(c) an activity, prescribed under a regulation, that is not directly associated with winning
mineral from a place where it occurs.
(5) For subsection (1), disposing includes, for example, the disposal of tailings and waste rock.
(6) A regulation under subsection (4)(c) may prescribe an activity by reference to the quantities of
minerals extracted or to any other specified circumstances.

extractive industry use of the extractive resource area.
ii development for a sensitive or incompatible use maintains an effective
separation from a key resource area and does not encroach within a key
resource area’s separation area and its transport route separation area.
iii development, other than for an extractive industry, is buffered from and is
able to mitigate impacts likely to occur as a result of an extraction of
resources from a extractive resource area.
