AUSTRALIA: Rio Tinto vs. Mirrar

Rio Tinto, the world’s largest mining corporation, will not proceed with mining in the Jabiluka uranium mine until they have the consent of the Mirrar, the traditional landowners. The Mirrar, together with Australia’s Conservation Foundation have called for the mining company to rehabilitate the Jabiluka site, reincorporating it back into the Kakadu National Park.
