Qld left with up to A$9.8m bill to rehabilitate defunct Texas mine

The now defunct Texas silver mine, in Queensland, would need an investment of between A$6.9-million and A$9.8-million to be fully rehabilitated, state Environment Minister Dr Steven Miles has said.

The Queensland government became the custodian of the Texas silver mine after the project’s most recent operator, Texas Silver Mines, went into liquidation in July last year, forcing the stat government to take responsibility for the site in August.
