The mining sector is up in arms about Environment Minister Tanya Plibersek’s “nature positive plan” with claims it will derail mining projects and halt the government’s own clean energy revolution. Ms Plibersek is seeking to push changes in Australia’s environment protection laws, as part of the government’s nature positive plan.
One of Gina Rinehart’s top lieutenants says the Albanese government’s so-called nature-positive laws pose a huge threat to farming and mining. Hancock Agriculture boss Adam Giles said the process “smelled” like a repeat of the shambolic Indigenous heritage legislation rolled out by West Australia’s Labor government last year.
“We absolutely love our jobs. Mrs Rinehart is an inspiration and has worked so hard to make this the best mine site in the world. We feel very privileged to be employed here and hope to stay with Roy Hill for many years to come,” Sonia says.
WA’s powerhouse resources sector pumped a record $77 billion into the State economy last year and accounted for one-fifth of company tax paid across the entire country.

The national accounts released last week reflect the considerable contribution Australia’s mining sector makes to our economy. While overall economic growth in Australia slowed to 0.2 per cent in the December quarter, the mining industry continued to grow, with its gross value increasing by 1 per cent, according to ABS data. This was largely driven by a 1.9 per cent increase in Australia’s production of iron ore in the quarter.
You’d be used to the phrase ‘red tape’. This is ‘green tape’ to the max! Major new projects and development will be ground to a halt or be forced just to pay up. It’ll mean more lawyers, more court challenges, more power to the opponents – in the end a minefield of new regulations and rules to make every step towards getting things done tougher. Probably why most of this being kept hushed.
