<suppInfo>Some areas of Queensland are not available for exploration, mining or production. Others may be available but have a range of conditions and restrictions placed on them.
Land within a moratorium area is also generally unavailable for prescribed periods. A moratorium area includes land that was previously part of an exploration permit that is now surrendered, abandoned, relinquished or expired. This land is considered 'excluded land' for a minimum of 2 calendar months from the date of surrender. You cannot apply for an exploration permit for the same mineral over this land until the land is released from moratorium. You can apply for a mining lease within moratorium areas, but size restrictions apply.
