Nine people have been charged with 22 offences including weapons and drug possession under ‘Operation Afield’ in Gladstone.
It follows an investigation by Capricornia District Tactical Crime Squad earlier this month.
Officers, including the Tannum Sands General Duties and Dog Squad, searched several properties in West Gladstone, Barney Point, Boyne Island and Gladstone Central.
In one of those searches on April 4, officers allegedly located meth, GHB, cannabis and more than $9,000 in cash at a Flinders Street address.
A 42-year-old West Gladstone man was charged with three counts of possessing dangerous drugs, and one count each of possessing utensils, and anything for use in the commission of crime.
Meanwhile, a 35-year-old man has been been arrested following another search at a Brin Street premise in Boyne Island, with police finding a loaded firearm, ammo and drug making items.
Both men will appear in Gladstone Magistrates Court next month.
In total, investigators seized a large quantity of illegal drugs and more than $45,000 in cash.
Investigations are ongoing.
