let's use New Pogera Mine project case to demonstrate foreign direct investment business Build Own Operate Transfer Public Private Partnership Deal between landowners, state government and landowners.... Likewise, such business deal was seen and achieved by the government when we took over Ok Tedi Mine from BHP Australia.... These two case achievements should be used to revisit, review and check previous , current and new foreign direct investment parties operating million dollar impact projects on our land or we should demonstrate this case when negotiating to potential foreign direct investment parties who are interested to develop our natural resources that we want to offer them BOOT Public Private Partnership Deal We should make BOOT Public Private Partnership Deal mandatory , bill it on the floor of parliament and officially make it a policy as a legal requirement that will supercede the current Mining, Petroleum and Gas Acts for all foreign direct investment parties who are currently operating in PNG or working to develop impact projects or who are interested to come to PNG and invest in developing our natural resources in the mining,oil and gas industry. We must also apply this case to foreign direct investment parties operating Fisheries, Forestry, food, Agriculture and livestock , energy, water and waste companies in PNG.

🤝 Dongwon FB&B has signed a memorandum of understanding with Jeju Technopark Yongam Seawater Center for #technology development for smart land-based #seaweed #farming. 🌋 The lava seawater from Jeju Island, which will now be used by Dongwon, is "salt groundwater" rich in minerals such as magnesium, calcium, and vanadium. Its temperature remains stable at around 16℃ year-round. 🍽 "The two companies plan to develop processed #foods using development technologies in the mid to long term and also introduce collaborative products utilizing the #brand of the Yongam Seawater Center." https://lnkd.in/dnxBVPjX

Resource Sector pulling its Employment Weight The average number of jobs in Alberta over the first eight months of 2024 was 3.0% higher than over the same period in 2023. This works out to about 74,500 more jobs on a year-to-date (YTD) basis. Breaking down the increase by industry, we find that the forestry, mining and oil and gas sector (mostly oil and gas in Alberta) added the most jobs at +18,000, or about a quarter of the total YTD increase. Out of the 16 main industry categories tracked by Statistics Canada, YTD employment was higher in 13 (see the chart below). After adding 45,000 jobs between them in 2023, transportation and warehousing, health care and social assistance, and manufacturing have posted more modest numbers so far in 2024 but are still on track to add around 35,000 positions by the end of the year.

Mighty Earth’s new report on the nickel industry in Indonesia reveals the impact it is having on the environment and communities. We found Indonesia’s nickel mines have cleared nearly 80,000 hectares of forest to extract nickel. More than half a million additional hectares of Indonesian forest are within nickel concessions, putting them at risk for deforestation. Combining deforestation alerts and on-the-ground investigations, we found that nickel mining companies have illegally cleared Protection Forests and Production Forests across Indonesia, and in some cases did not use FPIC (Free, Prior and Informed Consent) to consult local communities. In our recent webinar, Mighty Earth’s Senior Director for Forest Commodities, Amanda Hurowitz, said the Indonesian government must find ways to enforce existing forestry laws and expand regulations to further minimize environmental impacts.

A cursory monitoring of the political, media and governance landscape in recent times, shows that Ghanaian have been up in arms in protests about the glaring environmental harm caused by irresponsible mining activities. While the entire government machinery has been taken to task about the accentuated negative impact of mining activities with calls for a ban on mining activities, after several failed attempts by this government and previous ones before it to reign the menace in, this opinion argues that the recent menace is a legislative failure, and the law makers ought to be held accountable. This is not to suggest the gaps and inefficiencies in the role of other governance actors in the mining value chain – the Sector Ministry, Minerals Commission, Forestry Commission, Environmental Protection Agency, Local Government authorities.

#Landscape #Governance Assessment in all 7 provinces of Nepal is now completed. Its a great learning and getting real case scenario from the field. Field realities are seldom considered at the central decision making process while three tiers of overlapping governmental #jurisdictions make further complication in sustainable landscape management. Few cases below reflect the present scenario. 1. In Kaski district, stone mining permission was issued by the local government (citing the local government operation Act, and constitutional annex). Once the entrepreneur started stone mining based on local government permission, the chief district officer issued a letter (citing Mining Act) that the permission for mining is the authority of federal government. 2. Practice on decentralized planning process is hardly followed, as plans are taken from the political level, or randomized way. There is a lack of an institution ensuring planning coordination. 3. In Doti district, one of the rural municipality allocated budget and started work to construct walking trail (Goreto bato). The National Park authority asked to stop the construction (citing the case that the land is under national park and its jurisdiction). Now, the case is forwarded to the federal level. 4. Environmental Impact Assessment (EIA) is mandatary by law (EPA), however, is considered as a formality where implementation of environmental management plan is hardly in place. 5. The access to information and government decision process is positively increased, where the role of media, and social media is also well counted. The reason, corruption (mostly bribe from the general citizen) cases are reduced. However, there is an increasing trend on policy level corruption such as issuing licenses for hydropower, policy decisions. 6. In Gatlang area of the Langtang landscape, local livelihood is primarily based on livestock farming, sheep and Yak, and mostly rely on highland pasture for livestock grazing. Communities have been using open pastureland for generations to rearing their livestock. Recently, division forest office started plantation with fencing in these pastureland areas which create conflicts.   Many more similar cases, photo (c) : Author this is proposed dam site for Seti hydropower, Doti district. if dam will be constructed, the seen productive agri land will be no more.

From our ore to your door - Episode 5: ENVIRONMENT, REHABILITATION AND CULTURAL CONSIDERATIONS Our industry has two important roles to play: providing resources and protecting our incredible natural environment. Our Kunwarara mine and Parkhurst plant operate under Environmental Authorities which regulate the types of contaminants and volumes released during any one year. We complete annual reporting requirements around our environmental performance, in relation to the designated release requirements under the EAs. Cultural heritage and stakeholder involvement is of great significance to QMAG, as are the Darumbal People, the Traditional Custodians of the Rockhampton and Capricorn Coast area. Effective engagement and relationships with First Nations People is an integral part of successful operations. QMAG works with the Darumbal People and has done so since commencement of operations to preserve items of significance for the future. Currently QMAG is in negotiations to develop and implement a Cultural Heritage Management Plan which will help to direct our operations until the end of mining activities. QMAG values the land on which we operate. In the Rockhampton regional area, it’s common for land like the Kunwarara site to be cleared for cattle grazing. Our rehabilitation work post-mining will see most of the area returned to either grazing land or to the original woodland forest. #magnesia #magnesite #sustainability #queensland #refratechnik #qmag #mining #quality #safety #environment #queenslandmagnesia #australia #centralqueensland #rockhampton #calcination #verticalshaftkiln #pyroprocessing #electrofusion #mineralprocessing #remediation #tailingsmanagement #sales #marketing #technicalsales #maintenance #engineering #quality #hydrometallurgy #drilling #whatreallymatters
