  • Independent review to determine effectiveness of Mining Rehabilitation Fund
  • Fund has successfully restored a number of abandoned mines

Mines and Petroleum Minister Bill Johnston has announced Marsden Jacob Associates will review the Mining Rehabilitation Fund (MRF) to ensure it continues to meet its objectives and sufficient financial reserves are available.

Marsden Jacob Associates will consult with a wide range of stakeholders having completed an MRF evaluation in 2018.
