Brought to you by Mines and Environment and the Net Zero Collaborative Network, the Perth Blue Carbon & Net Zero Symposium will explore the pivotal role of coastal ecosystems—such as mangroves, seagrass meadows, and salt marshes—in carbon sequestration, mine rehabilitation, and regulatory compliance as industries accelerate their Net Zero commitments.

​

This high-impact event will unite leaders from mining, energy, government, Indigenous groups, and scientific research to discuss innovative solutions for integrating blue carbon strategies into industry rehabilitation efforts.

​

Key Focus Areas:

🔹 Mine Rehabilitation & Blue Carbon Ecosystem Integration
🔹 Carbon Credit Opportunities & Regulatory Pathways
🔹 Engineering Coastal Landscapes for Sustainable Carbon Storage
🔹 Indigenous Knowledge & Traditional Land Management
🔹 Industry Case Studies & Real-World Applications

​

Exploring the Intersection of Mining & Blue Carbon
As the mining sector transitions toward Net Zero, innovative rehabilitation strategies are emerging—transforming post-mining landscapes into carbon-sequestering ecosystems.

This symposium will explore the technical, engineering, and ecological frameworks required to integrate blue carbon ecosystems into mining rehabilitation efforts.

​

Featured Sessions & Presentations:

​

• Geomorphological Engineering & Hydrodynamics – Designing post-mining landscapes for tidal exchange and ecosystem restoration

• Biogeochemical Pathways – How metal-rich mine tailings interact with blue carbon sequestration

• Mine Water Management & Salinity Control – Leveraging decommissioned mine pits and coastal runoff for blue carbon rehabilitation

• Carbon Flux Quantification & Verification – Advanced remote sensing, soil carbon sampling, and carbon credit verification protocols

• Regulatory & Industry Frameworks – Aligning mining rehabilitation with carbon markets, Safeguard Mechanism, ACCUs, and WA State Environmental Policies

• Indigenous Knowledge & Co-Management – Integrating Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) into coastal restoration strategies

​

Case Study Spotlight:
Decommissioned Mine Pits in WA – Exploring tidal reconnection opportunities for blue carbon ecosystem establishment and beyond!

​

We look forward to welcoming you to Perth for an insightful and action-oriented event at the Blue Carbon & Net Zero Symposium – Perth 2025.

​

Join us as we bridge the gap between industry, policy, and science, unlocking the potential of blue carbon for a sustainable, low-carbon future. Register your interest to attend (bookings opening soon ), present, sponsor or exhibit
