More DescriptionThis Preliminary Report provides an overview of published and other work on the re-use of mines in Australia and internationally. It was produced as the first output of a project supported by CRC TiME into the broader question of how best to advance the re-use of mines in order to achieve positive economic, social and environmental outcomes.
