Nhulunbuy’s Mine Closure Crisis | Australia News

The Nhulunbuy bauxite mine’s 2029 closure threatens the town’s economic heart, forcing residents and businesses to confront an uncertain future. Rio Tinto, which also runs the local council, faces criticism for lack of leadership and rising utility costs that have driven away key services like the town’s only GP clinic and even Woolworths. Longtime locals fear displacement, while community leaders push for urgent, concrete transition plans — including Indigenous-led projects like biofuel and ammonia plants — to rebuild Nhulunbuy before the mine shuts down.
