[QUOTE="Neez, post: 635677, member: 22545"] Im astonished a tungsten mine was approved for exploration right next to a conservation area with current recreation use, historically and culturally significant and having 45 known endangered species. The loss and damage from the fires was horrific. This EL should be revoked. It places existing sustainable industries and recreational activities at risk. Just looked it up and tungsten dust is nightly explosive and combustible with oxygen. Thatll be a hot mix with the higher temperatures weve been experiencing. tungsten compounds should be regarded as highly toxic. The metal dust presents a fire and explosion hazard. There are major risks with this mine thatll line a few shareholders pockets for a short term. Hard to trust a mob who mine uranium in Namibia. We know theres uranium in the area there. What next?
