A 4.5 magnitude earthquake — the largest ever recorded near Orange, NSW — has forced Newmont's Cadia gold mine to suspend underground operations. All workers safely evacuated.
Cadia has long been accused of contaminating local water with heavy metals and forever chemicals via dust and tailings. Now it's shaking the ground too?
Is intensive mining (blasting, caving, and massive underground extraction) contributing to this seismic activity?#CadiaMine #OrangeEarthquake #MiningPollution #WaterContamination #NSW
