Regulator puts Ballarat mine operator on notice
Earth Resources Regulation is taking action to ensure that the operator of one of Victoria’s major gold mines complies with its site obligations and minimises operational risks to protect the environment and land.
The regulator has issued a notice to Ballarat Gold Mine operators Balmaine Gold to stop using a waste rock dump, which exceeded the company’s site approvals.
Operations at Ballarat Gold Mine will be able to continue, with the company using other areas at the mine which have been approved to store waste rock.
The company has been ordered to develop and implement a plan to control risks associated with the use of the waste rock dump.
