Govt rejects mining ban
Posted March 6, 2008 11:22:00
Greens MP Mark Parnell says he will introduce a bill to ban mining at the Arkaroola Wilderness Sanctuary. (
The South Australian Government and the Opposition have voted together to reject a Greens bid to stop mining in the state's sanctuaries.
Greens MP Mark Parnell says he will reintroduce the bill in another form, to stop mining specifically in the Arkaroola Wilderness Sanctuary in the northern Flinders Ranges.
A mining company was investigated last month over the way drilling samples were disposed of in the area.
Mr Parnell says the Government needs to support his amended bill.
"I'll come back with a specific bill just to prevent mining in Arkaroola," he said.
"It's the biggest sanctuary in SA, it's the most important and that's what we need to protect.
"Sanctuaries comprise only one tenth of one per cent of our state and if those areas aren't too precious to mine then where is?"
