Background Bellevue Gold Ltd (Bellevue Gold) is currently undertaking an exploration drilling program within mining tenement M3625 for the Bellevue Gold Project (the Project). The Project is located in the north-eastern Goldfields; approximately 40 km north of the township of Leinster in the Shire of Leonora. The Project is situated on and surrounded by pastoral lands and is located on Yakabindie cattle station. RPS was commissioned by Bellevue Gold to undertake a detailed flora and vegetation assessment over M3625 and part of M3624 to encompass the area where exploration drilling is currently underway and including the potential mining and associated infrastructure footprint (the proposed development area). The survey area, the proposed development area and the PoW 79431 area are shown in Figure A. RPS understands that the Department of Mines, Industry Regulation and Safety (DMIRS) and the Department of Biodiversity Conservation and Attractions (DBCA) have requested additional information regarding the natural values of the PoW area, where in-fill drilling is proposed, in order to adequately assess the PoW application.

There were plenty of Awww’s as Kathryn showed us her humble beginnings in the garden as she recalled many hours helping her dad as she was growing up. Kathryn continued her love of gardening, formalising it by obtaining a Bachelor of Design and Master of Landscape Architecture at RMIT, although she admitted that it was a course about the ‘feelings’ of plants, and not actually about plants themselves. Her hard work paid off as she was part of a team that won a Gold Medal at the Grand Designs Live Exhibition in 2012 for their structure incorporating succulents.

These species are generally not salt tolerant, however may demonstrate tolerances to a wide variety of soil types with corresponding range of inferred geochemistry.
