NESP TWQ Project 2.2.2 - Impacts of mine-derived pollution on Torres Strait environments and communities, 2016-2017 (CSIRO)

Created 12/03/2025

Updated 12/03/2025

This study addresses concerns regarding the impacts of mine-derived pollution on the marine resources of the Torres Strait. Using state of the art procedures, trace metal concentrations in marine waters and sediments will be determined at locations across the Torres Strait. Chemical signatures of mine pollution will be measured in waters and sediments and hotspots of contamination identified. The water quality data generated will allow informed management decisions to be made on how to best address trans-boundary mining related pollution.
