About this product

Product Information

'It is not a case of governments and companies putting royalties and profits before people; instead it is as though people don't matter at all . . . ' In Mine-Field, Paul Cleary counts the true cost of Australia's mineral addiction. Whether it be coal-seam gas, LNG or coal mega-mines, a resources rush is happening in just about every productive corner of our country. Yet at the same time oversight and regulation have been hollowed out. High-risk projects are being approved without proper assessment of the long-term consequences. Water resources, farmland and national parks are under threat, and people, communities and industries are being steamrolled. A ground-breaking piece of reporting by the author of Too Much Luck, Mine-Field plots the dubious networks created and greased by mining companies to get their projects through and exposes regulatory gaps that must be addressed to enormous and irreversible harm to our society and environment. 'This important book is compelling in its storytelling and chilling in its facts. It storms into the mining debate with a clarion call for more effective regulation. If you read it, you can't help joining the chorus.' Geoff Cousins 'Mine-Field, provides a warts-and-all, no holds-barred view of Australia's mining industry. It is a must-read for anyone making an informed judgement on where our nation is going.' Tony Windsor

    There was a bit of a postage glitch because of a blurry label but when I contacted the seller they were incredibly responsive and helpful and I couldn't have asked for better communication. Once the book was returned to them, it was re-sent and arrived reasonably quickly from an interstate regional area. It was as described, well-packaged, and great value for the price. I highly recommended this seller.

Brilliant seller....music wrapped in protective plastic inside firm cardboard envelope well marked with multiple stickers asking that envelope not be bent, crushed or folded. Delivered in fantastic condition, and sheet music exactly as advertised. Thrilled with my purchase!

  • Important, relevant, a vital read for all Australians

    While the book was in print in 2015 and therefore some facts such as stats and figures would need updating as the Mining sector keeps developing, the content is relevant, meaningful and still holds in 2022. It is written in a simple and concise language. It is not judgemental but explanatory. Decision makers, the Mining Industry and Australians at large could benefit greatly from the information conveyed. The resources sector, while of value to the economy of this Country is nearly entirely owned by non Australian parties and not sufficiently required to contribute to the present and future longevity of the Australian economy in a way that complements all households in this Nation. Norway, is a case in point where the leaders of that Country decided that the interest of their people ...
