1. Introduction. There is no perhaps other country in the world that has such a complex story to tell about mining than Papua New Guinea (PNG) (e.g. Connell, 1997) – despite the often geologically young nature of PNG mineral deposits and an abundance of mineral and other natural resources, it remains contentious as to whether mining's …

The construction in 1988 of an open-cut gold mine and ore-processing facility at Misima Island, Papua New Guinea, resulted in disturbance of the adjacent fringing coral reef, mostly because of large increases in sedimentation. This provided an opportunity to examine whether growth characteristics of the major reef-building coral, Porites, …

Abstract. Misima Mines Limited (MML) operated a large open-pit mine on the island of Misima in Papua New Guinea, from 1990 to 2004. The mine was a joint venture between Placer Dome (80%) and state-owned Orogen Minerals (20%). It produced 3.7 million ounces of gold, earning more than US$ 4.5 million for the state.

The mine operated for 15 years within which time key milestones from a WCB perspective included the cessation of exploration in 1997, submittal of the mine closure plan in 2000 and the mine ...

The process is also referred to as submarine tailings disposal (STD), but it is accurately defined as Marine Mine Waste Disposal (MMWD).
