Australian court overturns Aboriginal heritage order blocking gold mine

Australia's Federal Court invalidated a heritage protection order that had halted the billion-dollar gold mine project, citing procedural flaws, and remitted the matter to the government for reconsideration. The ruling is a setback for Aboriginal heritage protections but does not definitively clear the project, as the government must re-evaluate the order. This marks a legal reversal in an ongoing dispute between mining interests and Indigenous heritage rights.
