The mining company Cape Alumina has finalised agreements with the Cape York Aboriginal land owners for the proposed Bauxite Hills mine and port project in Queensland, clearing the way for a large-scale exploration and drilling program to start later this year.
Exploration consent and compensation agreements were signed between the company and the Apudthama Land Trust last week.
Acting CEO Neville Conway said the agreements were a ‘major milestone’ in the project’s development and was further evidence of the positive relationship that existed between Cape Alumina and the Aboriginal people of western Cape York.
