That is an ad about types of liners available. It's not an Australian government regulation about licensing. As the Cadia mine at Orange is leaking pollution so Regis seems to have the same problem, with no specification of water-purity.

That is just a guess on your part. Liners can get damaged you know.

"2018 tailing dam wall collapse "

Oh a dam wall collapsed, nothing to do with liners or lack thereof. Roll Eyes

After considering the Department’s advice, Minister Plibersek determined to make a declaration over part of the Belubula River, its headwaters and its springs, which falls within the footprint of the proposed tailings storage facility (TSF) for the Project.

Simple enough...

How stupid does one have to be to believe that gold mines are unviable if you can't dump tailings in the local rivers ... FD?

What exactly are you imagining that people believe John?

Speaking of exact ... how about you tell us why exactly the "order" was enacted & the restriction put in place that now makes the mine unviable??

Wouldn't have anything to do with tailings toxic contaminants leaching into the local waterways would it?

Why would you think that an acceptable outcome for the project to get up & running?

You've already seen a farmer whose property borders another gold mine not far away has concerns his land & ground water may be contaminated by mine waste.

Would it be OK for his business to be shut down because of that contamination?

dunno. is a 'site' identical with 'option'?

A site is generally an option that works, an option may not be a site that works. Four sites struck down, what does that leave? Roll Eyes

If you can't contain the mine waste without polluting local water ways or ground water then the project should be scuppered.

Nothing at all. The ruling has nothing to do with protecting the environment. Rather, the Labor party is buying into the Aboriginal voodoo that one particular location is more important than the other, for 'spiritual' reasons, then imposing this voodoo on a large mining project.

John and the other Labor cheerleaders were just pretending that is what it is about, but as you can see, if you ask him directly, he adopts the Labor party approach that he is 'not familiar with the details'.

They? Who, the mine at Orange?

That wasn't the mine under discussion. That was a separate one.

Cadia is NOT Regis. Is that you go to operation - change the terms? Grin

OK they both have 5 letters, I see how that could be confusing. Wink

But a gold mine is a gold mine ...no?

They all use similar technology & cyanide & have tailings dams ...no?

Well I can't say that I'm not over all that Aboriginal secret business & dreaming BS.

Especially since the application was made by one person and not a local Aboriginal Corporation.

That always seems to be the case. At least here we know who that one person is. Unlike say, Mt Warning, where there is a top secret committee dishing out the voodoo.

Yes ... & she is about as Aboriginal an elder as I am.

Even makes that fake Bruce Pascoe look more Aboriginal.

Downe at Ye Olde Mullumbimby Courte:-

"We went all the way to the top, Yer 'Onnah, and filmed the whole thing. You can see that there is nothing wrong or dangerous about the track!! And let me just add - you will see not one single spirit along the way... maybe a few old discarded bottles but no spirits!! did we stop for a piss? No more than any Abo would!!"

My question is :- When the equally treacherous and back-stabbing to the majority LNP get back in NSW, will they reverse this thing - or will they persist with the original Parrot's-Tits closure? He's taken a runner into a soft earner - got his money out of us for stealing our land rights...

Bonus question:- When will there ever be a Minister with balls enough to take back control over government departments instead of letting them run amok over the general public with their stupid university trained inner city ideas? No wonder Regionals want to secede from the states and have their own governments.... the way things are going this is going to have to become the reality, given that having such large states works towards an overly-centralised government which imposes on all without any sense or reason or even knowledge of local realities. You can't tell me Alice Springs doesn't want to secede from Darwin and go its own way... let down in every way, and even the CLP puts another sheila at the top to namby-pamby while licking the nuts of ... a certain demographic, thus encouraging them to crimefare - another form of warfare in which crime is used as a weapon... ask me again why those 'elders' and 'parents' won't stop those kids rampaging in towns...

I found out just t'other day, chatting to the bloke who bought the scaffold, that a ferry down the way was now owned by 'them' - on the basis that they 'owned' the sea/creek bed underneath it. WTF?? This madness has to stop!! You mean they had scuba gear- another Aboriginal invention?

The elder ... look at them Aboriginal features..... DNA test anyone? Might have had a great granny from the picture - but then that might have nothing to do with her - just positioned for propaganda purposes.

Note:- she hears voices, too... from those eyes I have no doubt about that ... like that whale song sheila out in WA who sprang from the earth after never having been heard of before but hears the whales singing .... more likely tinnitus ...

Plebeian Seeker, like all those centralised politicians - needs to get out there and get a grip on reality again .... secession by major parts of the country are on the cards..... this is what happens when you have 'career politicians' - they get too comfortable, out of touch, and embedded in their own and their developed stupidity. Time to go .... Tanya. Labor will find you a fabulous job somewhere else, and f*ck the peasants ....

P.S. told yez so - that AlboCorps would be another watershed in Australian politics.... just like Abbottion on the other 'side' of the Tag Team - all way out of synch with Australia.... time to leave...
