Learn moreOur landholdings are used for a range of purposes in addition to mining. We manage agricultural operations, including on rehabilitated land, to support productive and enhanced land use. We also own and manage land for biodiversity purposes, to offset ecological disturbance at our mines under both federal and state government requirements. In Queensland at New Acland, we also manage a number of conservation zones in areas that have not been and will not be disturbed by mining. Like biodiversity offsets, these areas are managed under strict regulatory conditions.
We work to responsibly manage both regulated and non-regulated waste. Our sites have management plans that detail requirements for disposal, tracking, and re-ensure compliance with relevant legislative requirements and regulations.
Dust, vibration and noise related to our operations can impact people who live near our mine sites, and we have a range of measures to manage and reduce these impacts. Both Bengalla and New Acland maintain offsite dust and noise monitoring equipment that provides real time data to inform and adjust operations as necessary. We investigate all complaints, including those made via our environmental hotlines, and work to resolve issues in a timely manner. We provide regular reporting on environmental monitoring and detailed registers of complaints received and how they were handled are available in reports.
We work to progressively restore disturbed land and to improve rehabilitation and post-mining land use outcomes.
