Welcome to the Upper Hunter Mining Dialogue

The Upper Hunter Mining Dialogue is a collaboration between community, mining, business and government.

We work together to address the impacts of mining and make the Upper Hunter a better place for all to live.

The Dialogue’s participants represent a wide range of stakeholders. Through our Working Groups and Committees, we work together to explore issues and develop solutions to environmental (e.g., air quality, rehabilitation, and water quality and stewardship), economic, and social development issues.
