"What a lot of people are forgetting here is that mining companies are obliged (as in the case of the authorised pipeline), to put up environmental bonds - sometimes running into millions of dollars."

Myself and friends very recently flew over the massive (now closed) coal mine near Leigh Creek. I wonder what rehabilitation will be carried out there? Will the mining company fill it in so that it looks as it originally was?

The naughtiness of the publicans re-gouging the Marree Man, by comparison, simply pales into insignificance.
