Rio Tinto: digging deep in response to project opponents
(CercleFinance.com) - Mining giant Rio Tinto notes the independent assessment report issued by Energy Resources of Australia (ERA) on 26 September 2022 to assess the Ranger Rehabilitation Project in Australia's Northern Territory.
The company understands the long-term opposition of the traditional owners, the Mirarr people, to further uranium mining in their territory.
Rio Tinto remains committed to ensuring that rehabilitation is completed to a standard that will provide an environment similar to that of the adjacent Kakadu National Park and continues to provide technical support to the project.
The company believes that the rehabilitation of the Ranger project area, which is of critical importance to the Mirarr people, Rio Tinto and ERA, can be achieved in a manner consistent with their wishes. This remains its top priority and commitment.
