enviroMETS Queensland has now closed
Following the formal launch of the Post-Mining Land Use Options Assessment Tool in June 2026, enviroMETS Queensland has completed its work after four years of project delivery, collaboration and advocacy in sustainable post-mining land use.
Over that period, enviroMETS helped raise awareness of innovative ways to make mining-impacted land more valuable to current and future custodians, with work that reached across Queensland, Australia and the broader international post-mining land use community.

Our Contribution
enviroMETS Queensland described itself publicly as an independent, industry-led, not-for-profit organisation established to find innovative and sustainable new ways to make mining-impacted land more valuable.
The organisation has successfully advanced discussion and awareness of transformative post-mining land uses that can help sustain communities and is proud of the successful development of the Tool now available for wider use.
Continue the work
The Post-Mining Land Use Options Assessment Tool is now the central public legacy of this work and is hosted through CRC TiME resources.
The Tool aims to support the consideration and identification of plausible post-mine land, asset and waste-use opportunities, and broader toolkit material describes it as a systematic process for assessing options relevant to a particular context.
We encourage industry, communities, researchers and landholders to continue using and enhancing the Tool and associated guides to support informed discussion about post-mining futures.Acknowledgement
enviroMETS Queensland thanks its staff, directors, partners, collaborators and community stakeholders for their trust, support and contribution. Their efforts helped make this work meaningful and helped move the dial on awareness of sustainable and transformative post-mining land uses.
