There is no mining in the rainforest. It is a registered World Heritage listed sight as of 1988. Once leases were given to mine Tin, however, if that happened many plant and animal species would be lost forever. This is the oldest rainforest on our planet and the only one to survive the Ice Age. The Daintree is older than the Amazon Rainforest, and we have learned the value of the Amazon, haven't we?
