Lake Cowal gold mine is owned by Canadian company, Barrick Gold, and has been in operation since the early 90s. The mine is located in the Sacred Heartland of the Wiradjuri Nation and the traditional owners have been fighting against the mine for over 10 years. Just this week 28 people were arrested at the mine site. There are still a lot of unresolved issues surrounding the mine.
