Mine Tours for Mine Rehab Conference 2017
|
This year we are pleased to have a number of opportunities to experience first hand current mine rehabilitation practices within the Hunter Valley.
We would like to thank the mines for their generosity in allowing access to their sites for conference delegates to observe in-situ best practices in progressive rehabilitation of open-cut coal mining operations. Below is the list of mine tours to be held at our 7th Annual Best Practice Ecological Rehabilitation of Mined Lands Conference (2017). Please Note: Each participant is to wear long pants, long-sleeved shirt, protective glasses (can be sunglasses) and closed in shoes. If you have a hard hat, and safety vest please bring it. Hi-Vis is highly recommended. Please note that media organisations are by appointment only. The mine tours include: Both mine tours both depart and return from Muswellbrook RSL, Bridge Street, Muswellbrook. Coach/Mini-bus will be driven on site under escort and control by mine staff. The cost of a mine tour is $50. To purchase a ticket click on the button below and select the appropriate tour as listed below. |
