Mixed cover crops for sustainable farming

Crop intensive farming systems can be prone to deplete soil carbon levels, often requiring increased inputs to maintain or increase yield without necessarily improving profitability. Mixed species cover cropping offers a new approach in the Australian context.

What to do with tailings?

Processing ores after mining to concentrate and extract metal values produces tailings that can represent >95% of the total ore mass. With processing and hydrometallurgical routes requiring large volumes of water, the tailings are generated as dilute slurries, which were typically kept dilute or partially thickened in a tailings storage facility.
