Here is the report. Sorry for the lateness - old age and all that. Hairyman. A bit late - sorry about that. Hope it helps.

I have an article I wrote on the mine(s) which I just remembered was in Pratten. You are welcome to a copy if it's of interest. I will send that to you privately but I won't attach it here. I used to teach science/maths in High School in Qld in the 70's which dates me well and truly.

My great grand father invested in and worked a goldmine at BIGHILL at Warwick until the 1910's but it's now a private small rural property. If you search TROVE newspapers there are lots of references to the mine which had shareholders. The surface discovery seems to have been very rich gold in...

There are many ways to skin a cat other than by pulling its rectum over its head. The submissions by NAPFA have my support but if you want action and decisions that actually work in our favour then the way to do that is via your local member. I have written to mine on one occasion and received...

A look at the definitions in the NSW Mining Act 1992 defines land as being also land covered by water. Forget my earlier deliberations. It does seem that the only way to get around the issue of water extraction for processing is to do it manually by bucket or to use a gravity feed to a...

Like many I am a bit aghast at the Compliance determination on highbanking but we do need to look closely at the wording of MINING REGULATION 2016 - REG 12 Fossicking. I am no lawyer but the regulations are not well worded and fail to provide definitive help to avoid confusion. At the core of...
