There has been alot of stuff going down regarding to mine or not to mine in Arkaroola. We'll according to the SA Govt a ban will be put in place and eventually be protected for generations to come.

Its a bit hard to take any government at its word in australia these days. Until its actually law I will not believe it.

More than likely it is just Mr Rann trying to get a bit of noteriety for himself. It is easy to announce stuff that he thinks people want to hear but this is nowhere near a done deal yet. What about compo for the miners?

I would be very interested where u heard the 'stuff going down'.
Reg Sprigg's lifework was to achieve something like this as u know and it would be a fantastic outcome.

The people at Arkaroola seem to think that it is for real. Premier Rann has visited and issued a press release. The link is below. Action promised includes World Heritage listing.
