How is it that it only needs the Prime Minister and the Minister for Conservation to say yes to mining? No one else and no Act of Parliament is required! The gold is only a tiny proportion of the material extracted, less than 10 parts in one million. The gold is extracted using cyanide, so safe storage of the mine waste poses a serious problem. Listen to a clear and coherent 50 minute insight into the issues and learn some simple methods of how to take action. First broadcast Feb 2010
