Thanks very much for letting us TH-camrs know of this mate, James. I have an uncle who lives up in the Blue Mountains and had only ever heard this from him years ago, that there had been a mine up there and polluted the wilderness there, but I didn't know of what was being mined. Our governments and, especially even our ABC and SBS networks - never informed us of this, of my knowledge. Such bloody sheer ignorance‼️ Governments take such especially the Liberals allow such to happen. Even tho they say, both Liberal and Labor are just as bad as one another. It's about money and doing deals. (Sounds like a done Trump deal that he did to Bear Ears Mountain Monument in Utah, USA. Just like so many have been done in the past.) This info needs to get out there and be told for everyone and the future generations. It just makes me so sad of what is happening to this beautiful natural environment. 😢
It's nice to know that your work is achieving a positive outcome. It is also good that the coal mine is actually doing something about it and putting place amendments that you guys have brought to the EPA's attention. Well done. Let's hope that the government can allocate funds to address the canyon coal mine destroying the surrounding ecosystem by allowing toxic minerals to flow loose into the surrounding creek.
Makes me wonder what the water would be like off captains flat mine lead rich probably and theres many exposed sources near water bottom of the dam at corin dam to ya right a pocket of exposed lead zinc. rock flat creek just out of cooma a smelly sulphide mine shaft on a hill right next to the stream cowra creek near peak view nsw might be leaking into the upper Murray good work everyone thanks for your efforts
Great clip. It's much worse than that. I can just remember when you could drink water straight from most waterways in the Blue Mountains and the place was pristine. And much of that comes not only from mines but from people choosing to live in the Blue Mountains. The irony is so many of them think they are in touch with nature by living there, yet their runoff and lifestyle is polluting it. We need a long term plan to prevent further occupation of the area, and gradually depopulate it apart from essential use, well controlled transit, and well regulated eco-tourism.
Great video about the affects mining has on our country and environment. Honestly I knew the Hawksbury/Nepean was polluted but I never thought levels were so high. Mining is part of our life but they seriously need to do more to minimise the impacts.
This is a very informative and important documentary. Thank you for sharing and producing. I would like to ask if you guys have done any research about mining in Bungonia national park. I believe it is a similar case since the mine is right on top of bungonia creek and the water from the creek flows down to Shoalhaven River.
Nice one I am so glad Western Sydney university discovered this problem and with their evidence conservationists and others got some action taken to help improve the crimes that were and are being committed here . Great documentary . thanks everyone who was involved with this doccumentary and the people who tyook action to bring this environmental vandalism to the authorities attention
It took people power to carry out investigations and telling the EPA to do something, congratulations on UWS and the residents, Corporations should be ashamed.
Subsidence of rock strata and subsequent draining of swamps and alteration of stream flows a major issue of longwall mining. Not a case of out of sight, out of mind!
Regulators in Australia (at least in financial industry) do their job and go home - just enough. From time to time their scrutiny and due process is questioned and they make it their job to come up with feasible, viable answers. In other words, bum covering. There's a lot of that in Australia. Here it seems like some of the usual. It's sad and a shame that regulators let the mining industry get away with it. Another problem in Australia is that it's a country where publicly elected political parties assume power, but are largely funded by private interests, such as banks and miners, who seem to get away with defrauding Australian people with stunts like this. The gatekeepers are not asleep, they just don't care to bite the hand that feeds them. My opinion.
I'd love for you guys to check the water quality around the hunter valley area... It's a crying shame, the rivers that are still actually flowing are disgracefull. God bless and keep up the good work.
The Australian need to get their mining companies under control. Even outside Australia they are causing destruction and then walk away and say its not their problem.
Is it really a problem considering it's all natural contamination that comes from nature? Please don't jump down my throat, I'm trying to educate myself. Plus, what is the result of the contamination the water falls and everything around it still looks beautiful, I live in katoomba and i have not seen anything wrong.
Unbelievably one sided presentation equating mine operation from 100 years ago with operating procedures today. Todays mine operators must comply with some of the toughest environmental standards in the world. If you believe everything presented in this video you are a long way from being objective.
Question: When did Clarence clean up their discharge? Answer: Not until a new license required it. That tells you about priorities and the need for programs just like this. Q: Why did the license conditions for a CURRENT mine change? A: Citizen action.
Correct. A bunch of greeny bs! You dont see people or animals dropping dead from drinking water from beneath historic gold mines... this is just another attempt at abbo and greenies land grab tactics
Difference between me and you... ive worked in the mining industry for years closely with enviro safety personnel and have first hand experience of safe water release practices. You and your indoctrinated uni posse use a single mine that was closed long before strict environmental policies and use images of calcium and iron oxide deposits to try give mining a bad name/image and back it up with zero proof of toxic contamination . If everyone listened to greenies then it'd be lights out and back to the dark ages.
At the 2mins and 10 sec, you said you get iron, manganese , and aluminium, where can the aluminium possible come from, aluminium is man made, I believe your talking of chemtrails!
@@tonydoggett7627 , Aluminium is made from processing Boxit , it measures , nano particles of aluminium, and that is from chemtrails, and so all around the world, not only water is polluted, are air, are food, and our own bodies, look that up on Goolag, I mean Google
If only mines there got expansions and were running full swing, because they'd be subject to modern regulations and safeguards and maybe then young people would have opportunities and aspirations instead of shit retail jobs and getting in trouble with the police. A problem brought to us by the whinging boomers, that are all to happy to use products from mining in their daily lives, and whinge about it left right and centre.

Thank you to the team that identified the problem and worked with the community to fix it. A great job. A great video too.
It’s not fixed ! This pollution is still damaging the environment and every living creature that is in contact with the water including humans
Herzlichen Dank für diese wichtige Dokumentation. Das muss wieder in Ordnung gebracht und zwar nach dem Verursacherprinzip.
Australia being the kind of place it is, culturally, how do you propose holding the people responsible to account?

Well done, really interesting.
This is mental. Even deep in nature we can still be exposed to pollution.
Its really amazing hearing about what has gone on, good on you for getting this information out there to educate.
Thanks Vince!

Yeah right.. Thats concerning! Sounds like another Sunny Corner. Is that old mine still there? I heard it sold
Also be interested to hear the effects of mining that's happening in the edges of Marrangaroo NP as it sits so close to the Cox's River.
he, he, he....you said cox!

Thanks Mick, may I ask how you discovered this film? Its exploded in the last week!
@James O'Connor popped up in my home page suggested videos mate.
good job mate really educational video.
Thank you!

WHAT ? No third choice?
Beautifully done

Thanks mate, yes the WSU crew did an amazing job!
Thank you for your commitment to this issue. So appreciated.
Thanks to those of you that care for the environment !
We visit that area a lot and have seen the outfall of mining.
Great job with what you have achieved.

Let me know when you find a corporation or CEO that's ashamed about anything.

Very true David. How did you find this film? Its taken off in the last week
14:05 ppb? ppm? mph? knots? Polish the water to extract and sel ..er..um..re-cycle the Ni and Zn?

What is “woddah” they keep mentioning? And why do all these aussies mention it when they’re discussing the water?
lol I guess it does sound like woddah when we say it
What i want to know is are there yowies still living there simple question people looking forward to anser nunal nunal

Hi Peter, the contamination is 100% not natural. It is coming from toxic mine waste so yes, big problem for water and health!
