A published paper on mine rehabilitation in the Latrobe Valley. Title: The perfect storm: mine closure in the Latrobe Valley, Victoria. Authors: Scrase, A; Brereton, J

‘In response to the global energy transition, the three large open cut coal mines in the Latrobe Valley of Victoria, Australia, have announced their closure. However, the lack of preparedness by both government and industry for the cessation of mining operations and the subsequent rehabilitation of three mines sets the scene for the perfect storm in the Latrobe Valley… Good practice mine closure requires planning to commence at the beginning of mine planning, before mining commences, and continue throughout the life of the mine.’ To read the full abstract or complete paper visit https://doi.org/10.36487/ACG_repo/2415_94
