Best Answer

Australia is rich in natural assets, and consequently does not import many of the items in this list.

In 2007, crude petroleum was at the top of Australia's list of imports, yet oddly enough, was also fourth on its list of top exports. Refined petroleum is third on Australia's list of imports.

Australia does not import any coal, iron ore or gold. In 2007, coal was its largest export, iron ore its second highest and gold its third largest export.

Australia is also strong in the production of bauxite, copper, tin, silver, uranium, nickel, mineral sands, lead, zinc and natural gas, and does not import any of these items.

Diamonds are found in Australia, but are still imported. While the country currently imports tungsten, there are plans for the country to begin producing its own tungsten.
