Thanks for that.

But they do treat it. You really don't know much, do you? They recover cyanide etc to re-use.

"Because much more cyanide is required than is desirable from an economic or environmental viewpoint, leading practice is to recycle as much cyanide as possible."

They? Who, the mine at Orange? 'A gold mine near Orange in the New South Wales Central West has confirmed its waste storage facilities are leaking.' Do you make your cup of coffee with'waste' or with 'water? Please explain.

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

Regis : 'The proposed site – dubbed McPhillamy’s gold mine – would include an open pit and tailings storage.
Among the most pressing concerns is the fear that the mine’s tailings dam would cause seepage into the Belubula River.'

That's not a plan for wastewater treatment, it's a pollution dump.

"New details have surfaced about Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek’s decision to veto a gold mine project in regional New South Wales to protect Indigenous cultural heritage."

"Sky News Australia host Andrew Bolt claimed the Environment Minister essentially blocked the mining development because it was "on the site of secret Aboriginal business even though there's no obvious evidence" to support it."

No evidence? Oh dear.

"On Tuesday, Mr Bolt revealed Wiradjuri elder and artist Nyree Reynolds lodged the protection application in 2021 and not the relevant Aboriginal land council in the region.

Ms Reynolds, who has claimed ties to both the Wiradjuri and Gamilaraay tribes on various academic and government websites, cited the region's significance to Aboriginal "dreaming stories" in the claim. "

Trust us they say. We will listen to the relevant Land Councils, except where we won't.

Nyree Reynolds is a old white Karen passing herself off as a native

Wiradjuri woman. Sick of cultural theft by race claimers & lies about culture

Nyree Reynolds pulling out all the stops to have the mine shut down.
With her obvious condition, I'm wondering if she's actually walked the land, I don't be thinking so but I just might get a mob together and go walkabout to see what we can see.

What % Abo is Nyree is it 0.00000000000000000012%?

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?

None of the options could reasonably be described as simply dumping the tailings into a river. However, all the options that Plibersek refers to involve using the catchment of a river. Plibersek's decision has nothing to do with protecting the environment, and you and the rest of the Labor cheerleaders are misrepresenting it by pretending it is. Plibersek did not claim that her decision would be better off overall for 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.

Once again, John has completely lost the plot.
