RMIT associate professor, Dr. Gavin Mudd and HydroTerra's Richard Campbell discuss case studies around mine rehabilitation, including Australian mines Rum Jungle, Redbank, Neath-Greta and Captain's Flat and ideas on moving forward.

Dr. Gavin Mudd is an expert in the field, and has been at the forefront of environmental issues in mining for 25 years, with his research recognised as the most authoritative around the world. Collaborations include the US Geological Survey, Columbia University (Prof. Upmanu Lull), Yale University (Prof. Tom Graedel), across Europe (e.g. Leiden) and extensively around Australia. His research is highly cited – in large part due to the rich, unique data sets which underpin the work.

He has worked closely with communities across Australia, including indigenous communities (especially concerning uranium mining), and maintains a strong, independent view – a unique and highly respected voice on how we should think about the sustainability of modern mining.
