It beggars the question, if approval to mine is sought prior to commencing a mining programme, how would it even be possible for the local indigenous land owners to make a decision to grant or deny said approval?

Putting the cart before the horse.

What I would rather research is for instances of mining plans being denied and for what reasons. Obviously animosity doesn’t count.

All Tony can do is work with the native title holders and foster a spirit of respect and cooperation.
