What does “Acceptable” really mean when important engineering questions are still waiting to be answered? Dr Steven Emerman returns to the podcast for a third time to examine the Golder review of the Curraghinalt Gold Mine Waste Management Plan. We look beyond the headline 108 “Acceptable” ratings and discuss mine-waste stability, liquefaction, earthquakes, groundwater, filtered tailings, closure, financial guarantees and the work Golder says should be addressed at later stages of design. Ultimately, who receives the benefits  and who is left carrying the risk?
