flag Australia’s McPhillamy gold mine project faces opposition over water and land concerns ahead of a federal hearing.

flag Australia’s central west region remains a key gold-producing area, contributing nearly 10% of the nation’s 289-tonne annual output, valued at $60 billion as of October 2025. flag The Cadia Valley mine alone produced 17 tonnes in 2023, worth over $35 billion. flag New projects like Boda-Kaiser and McPhillamy’s deposit show significant potential, but the McPhillamy’s mine faces opposition over a proposed 90km pipeline for contaminated wastewater and a waste dam near the Belubula River, threatening farmers’ water access and sacred Wiradjuri sites. flag A federal hearing on the project is set for early December.
