Ann: Bowdens Silver Project Appeal Proceedings Outcome, page-128

What a joke Australia is becoming. Mining one of the few industries that has created real wealth for our country over the last 50 years or so, is fast being destroyed by bureaucratic bullshit.
Without doubt in recent times we have become one of the most expensive countries to operate mining operations. Maybe more people need to wake up and realise, destroy mining and Australia's economic future will become very fragile indeed.
About time the talking heads out there, need to realise shuffling paper, making coffee and serving food and drinks, doesn’t create real wealth for this country.
NSW definitely has fast become not a good place, to invest into mineral exploration or hoping to create a mining operation.
