Mapping biodiversity corridors
Land disturbed by mining activities is often planned to be rehabilitated to native ecosystems. Linking native ecosystem rehabilitation areas in a coordinated way across multiple mine sites will create biodiversity corridors. Biodiversity corridors can result in a greater net biodiversity benefit than would be achieved by a single rehabilitation area in isolation. The Office of the Queensland Mine Rehabilitation Commissioner is undertaking work to assess the potential for mine rehabilitation areas in the Fitzroy Basin to connect high value ecosystems and enhance biodiversity.
