Case study: Caroona Coal Project community update
Since 2006, BHP Billiton has been conducting exploration activities in the Caroona Exploration Licence area in New South Wales, Australia. To minimise the impacts of any future mine, we have been working with our stakeholders to ensure mining and agriculture can coexist.
Through community engagement, we now have a greater understanding of our local community’s issues and expectations and how they should be addressed. To find out more about how we are working with our community, read our Caroona Community Update case study.
