Belying Australia's positive international reputation, mining companies from Down Under are accused...
Australia is a giant in African mining, but its vast — and in some cases deadly — footprint has never been examined.
Australian-listed mining companies are linked to hundreds of deaths and alleged injustices which wouldn't be tolerated in better-regulated nations.
In a special six-part rich multimedia presentation, the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) used thousands of corporate records to detail how Australian companies can under-report deaths, injuries, legal actions or strikes. Never-before-seen court documents, legal complaints, community petitions, contracts and confidential company emails reveal the extent of Australia's controversial imprint across Africa.
