Exploring the issues & technologies around mine closure

Australia is home to an estimated 60,000 abandoned mines. Many of these are small, and some date back to the gold rushes of the 1800s. But abandonment is not limited to distant history, and new mine sites are shut and abandoned every year.
Australian law requires the mining companies to pay for and carry out the rehabilitation of their former sites, but the process is an internal one that doesn’t require the input of local communities

While developing and operating mines are massive imperatives, their closure is equally as important. Mine rehabilitation and closure planning is becoming an increasingly important part of the mine process.
