Economy of Western Australia

The economy of Western Australia is dependent on agriculture, mining and tourism.

Mining

There are abundant natural resources in WA and as a result a variety of different industries have been developed for the extraction of these resources. It is the third-biggest producer of iron ore in the world and W.A also extracts bauxite, which is used to produce aluminium. Almost a fifth of the total world production of aluminium comes from this state. Diamonds are also mined in the far north and coal is mined and used for the production of electricity. There are also iron ore and bauxite processing facilities.


Agriculture

Agriculture is an important sector producing wheat, peas, barley and wool. The production and export of wheat contributes $1.7 billion to the state’s economy There is also a demand for live cattle export.

Trade

The main exports of West Australia are iron ore, wheat, nickel, gold, live cattle, aluminium, diamonds, petrochemicals, ammonia, wool and liquefied natural gas.

Oil refinery

The largest oil refinery in Western Australia is located in Kwinana and produces petrol and diesel which are used locally.

Tourism

The importance of tourism has increased rapidly in the past few years. A large number of tourists visit W.A from Asia and Europe with funds generated by tourism being used in many different development projects.

Fishing

There is a stable fishing industry producing prawns, crayfish (lobster), crabs and many varieties of fish.

Transportation

The railway is a common means of transport. The railway system was introduced in Western Australia in the 19th century through the combined efforts of the government and different private companies. Iron ore trains on private lines also operate in the state. South of Perth a private railway is used for the transport of timber from Lockville to Yoganup.

  • Suburban network of Perth

In Perth the largest public transport infrastructure project ever in Western Australia - the $1.66 billion New MetroRail project - has doubled the city’s metropolitan rail network.

  • Iron ore lines

Four individual heavy rail lines operate privately in the state to carry iron ore and connect mines with several major ports. A plan was introduced in 2010 for the enhancement of the railway network which would link all the mines.
