Project Title: Mining The Blue Mountains

Brief Synopsis: Dr Ian Wright has been investigating pollution from mines in the UNESCO World Heritage Blue Mountains for over ten years. "Mining The Blue Mountains" takes you on a journey into the wilderness of Grose Valley and along its waterways with Ian and his team of water researchers.

Mines have been synonymous with economic growth around NSW for over a century. However as these mines reach the end of their shelf life most are simply locked up and left to continue to pollute our river systems - so who cleans up the mess? "Mining The Blue Mountains" has amassed over 35,0000 views, won awards at Cotswold and Mysuru International Film Festivals + streamed on the Films For Change platform.
