The Screen Guide

Uranium mining has long been a source of conflict between mining companies, Aboriginal and environmental activists. Olympic Dam Mine in South Australia is no exception. Set up near the town of Roxby Downs, it is the largest uranium mine in the country. Opposition to the mine comes from environmental groups concerned about the impact operations may have on the environment, and from various Aboriginal community members, worried about the potential loss of cultural heritage and the destruction of sacred sites. Part of ICAM series.
