Clive Palmer's private company Mineralogy has donated a further $1.7 million to the businessman's United Australia Party as voting gets underway in the Queensland election, a month after the firm contributed $2 million to the party.

According to the Electoral Commission of Queensland's public database, a number of Mr Palmer's private companies first started donating to Clive Palmer's United Australia Party from September 4 and were described as "salaries for staff working on CPUAP issues".

The two biggest donations were from Mineralogy, which contributed $2 million on September 16 and the additional $1.7 million on October 16. The party is running candidates in 50 electorates, but according to opinion polls is unlikely to come close to winning any seats.
