Public hearing notification
The community will have its say on a proposal for the Bowdens Silver significant development application (SSD-5765) at a public hearing to be held by the NSW Independent Planning Commission on Wednesday 15th, Thursday 16th and Friday 17th of February 2023 at Mudgee Showground Main Pavilion (11 Nicholson Street MUDGEE 2850 NSW).
The decision on whether the Bowdens Silver Project will go ahead will be made by the Independent Planning Commission because the Department of Planning and Environment received more than 50 unique submissions objecting to the proposal.
Commissioners Peter Duncan AM (Chair), Clare Sykes and Peter Cochrane have been appointed to determine the development application.
The Commission will conduct a Public Hearing on the Bowdens Silver Project development application as a livestreamed event at Mudgee Showground Main with registered speakers participating in person or via online videoconference or telephone.
The Commission has access to all previous submissions made to the Department of Planning and Environment on this proposal, so it is particularly helpful for the Commission to also hear from stakeholders about their views on the Department’s assessment of the key issues and proposed conditions of consent. These documents are available on the Commission’s website.
Key issues identified in the Department’s whole-of-government assessment of the development application include: water resources, amenity, traffic, biodiversity, and social impacts.
The deadline for speaker registrations is 5pm AEDT on Wednesday 8th February 2023.
Written submissions can also be lodged using the ‘Have Your Say’ portal on the Commission’s website. Written submissions will be accepted until 5pm AEST on Friday 24 February 2023.
The public hearing will be broadcast live online.

The Australian Wine Research Institute (AWRI) was asked by the Mudgee Wine Grape Growers Association to comment on whether the Bowdens Silver mine project (State Significant Development No. 5765) might have any negative impacts on the Mudgee winegrowing region. After examination of the Bowdens Silver Environmental Impact Statement (EIS), in particular Part 2 – Air Quality Assessment (hereafter referred to simply as the “EIS”), it is clear that metals will be emitted from the mine in the form of dust and aerosols. This therefore introduces the possibility that vineyards in the Mudgee region could be exposed to metals which might result in grape metal concentrations which are elevated above their typical levels. This could occur due to exposure to metals during the growing season and also due to the accumulation of metals in the vineyard soil over time. Atmospheric particulates, especially dust and aerosols containing particles that have low volatility, have the potential to transport contaminants over long distances and have adverse environmental consequences in downwind depositional areas (Khademi et al. 2018, Csavina et al. 2012). Such transport of contaminants (i.e., via dust and aerosols) can become particularly important when it occurs over years to decades (Csavina et al. 2012). Contaminants commonly associated with particulates from mining operations are usually most concentrated in the finer particle size fraction (Csavina et al. 2012), as evidenced by the PM2.5 size fraction data reported in Tables 7.7 and 7.8 of the Bowdens Silver EIS, which indicates this size fraction contains metals including silver, arsenic, cadmium, copper, manganese, zinc, cobalt, chromium, iron, lithium, nickel and lead. It should be noted that fine particles represented by the PM2.5 size fraction travel greater distances in the environment than larger particles (Ravi et al. 2011). When the data provided in the EIS are extrapolated from predicted 1-hour average metal concentrations (µg/m3/hr) in the PM2.5 fraction to average metal concentrations per m3 per year in this fraction, it is found that the average concentrations of arsenic, zinc and iron emitted in the PM2.5 fraction during the site establishment and construction stage (SE&CS), as well as the average of the values presented for the operational years 3, 8 and 9, are in the mg/m3 range (see attachment 1 – Extrapolation of data from Table 7.7 in the Bowdens Silver EIS Part 2 – Air Quality Assessment). That is, the predicted concentrations of arsenic, zinc and iron in the PM2.5 fraction emitted per m3 per year are 0.27, 3.52 and 21.75 mg/m3, respectively, during the SE&CS stage, and 0.27, 2.74 and 35.11 mg/m3, respectively, thereafter (using the average of the data provided for years 2, 8 and 9 in Table 7.7 of the EIS). From the peer reviewed research available, it is clear that grapevines can accumulate metals in their roots, leaves and fruit due to airborne pollution from metallurgical activities (Alagić et al. 2015, Bora et al. 2020), particularly copper and zinc (Mirzaei et al. 2021). Even if such exposure to metals does not represent a health risk, metals are catalysts for oxidation and elevated levels in wine can decrease shelf-life, particularly copper and iron (Scrimgeour et al. 2017). Atmospheric modelling There are at least 29 vineyards and wineries in the Mudgee winegrowing region according to Mudgee Wine (https://www.mudgeewine.com.au/wineries-and-cellar-doors/), ranging from approximately 17 – 38 km from the project, with the approximate centre of the region being approximately 20 km from the Bowdens Silver project (calculated using Google Maps). The majority of wineries/vineyards are situated roughly northwest of Bowdens Silver (see Attachment 2a). The Regional Annual Wind Roses for 2017 (Figure 4.1 in the EIS Part 2 – Air Quality Assessment) presented for Lue Met02, which is at a more southern location and lower elevation than Lue Met02 (which is within the mine site boundary), show a prevailing wind alignment to the northwest and southeast, with a greater tendency for south-easterly winds (15% of the time). Section 4.2 of the EIS (Prevailing Winds) indicates that “nights are typically characterised by weak to no vertical mixing and the predominance of stable conditions. These conditions are normally associated with low wind speeds and, hence, lower dilution potentials.” The combination of tendency for south-easterly winds and lower dilution potential at night, allows for dust and aerosols containing metals to travel from the Bowdens Silver mine site along the natural valley followed by Lawsons Creek directly to the Mudgee winegrowing region (see Attachment 2b), particularly during the night. Receiver sites on the northwest side of the mine (e.g., R60, R73 and R76) have amongst the highest predicted annual average dust deposition values in Table 7.6 of the EIS, apart from a small number of sites that are closer to the mine site boundary (e.g., R4, R7 and R17). This data is consistent with the prevalence of south-easterly winds, showing the Lue Met02 data is the most relevant with respect to possible impacts on the Mudgee winegrowing region. Conclusion Given the Bowdens Silver mine will emit dust and aerosols containing metals, and given the prevailing south-easterly winds and local topography, it is possible that vineyards in the Mudgee region could be exposed to metals from the mine. Elevated concentrations of metals, particularly iron, can negatively impact the quality of wine and decrease shelf-life. Adrian Coulter Senior Oenologist References Alagić, S. Č., Tošić, S.

as a local land holder within the proposed mines lease area I wholly support the proposal as it will provide the local area with much needed employment in the local kandos /rylestone area there are no larger employers in this area the closest is in the ulan/wollar area which is a considerable distance away with regards to the environmental aspect i believe that all of the risks associated with the project have been addressed and the impact to the community would be minimal. as a business owner i have been associated with 4 separate greenfield mine applications and have witnessed the process required to get the project this far i first became involved with the project over 20 years ago doing rehabilitation works for silver standard also kingsgate finally working for bowdens silver over the last few years i have witnessed first hand the professional way that they have handled the exploration process i firmly believe that all environmental risks have been addressed properly as a business owner i look forward to continuing working for bowdens and growing my small business with them the local community would quite significantly improve in regards to local roads and infrastructure as a direct result of the approval of this project |

Please find attached the presentation and reports summarising groundwater related matters. Considering the vague designs, outdated conclusions, misleading statements, potential consequences and the opportunity to create a 'roadmap' for similar approvals, I would be happy to discuss specifics of any of the matters raised. |

Submission |
We are a significant business in the local region. We are strong proponents of sustainable agriculture and protection of the environment. At the same time, we are well aware of the significant impact on employment from the closure of the Kandos Cement Works and Clandulla coal mines. It is important to acknowledge that this project offers a significant economic boost to the region. A project of this scale and nature will raise several important issues, especially related to environmental and societal impacts. Because of this we would expect that the various regulating authorities will have undertaken intense review of these issues, and the required processes and outcomes; and put in place controls to address each of these areas. We seek reassurance that this is actually the case. Naturally we are concerned about the environmental and health impacts, especially from lead dust and water contamination. We specifically seek reassurance in these areas. We are also concerned about the potential impact on tourism for two reasons. 1. Visible environmental degradation, and 2. Significant media coverage of these issues |

I write in support of the proposed planning approval for the development of the Bowdens Silver project. I have been in and around this project for a number of years, through engagement with Silver Mines Limited and Bowdens Silver Pty Ltd. I have always seen there approach to community first and the support of the broader community of Lue (through direct assistance to the school), Rylstone, Kandos and Mudgee through support of sport, local businesses and employment opportunities. With the approval for the development of the Bowdens Silver project, I believe this will provide a signficant uplift in the already significant support that Bowdens Silver provides to these communities. I think it is also important to look to the state and federal governments focus on critical minerals, which the Bowdens Silver project falls in line with. Mines like the Bowdens Silver project a crucial to being able to progress on these stated initiatives of government at all levels. From my review of the recommended conditions, I believe they adequately prevent, mitigate or offset any adverse impacts from the proposed development. |

I endorse the approval of Bowdens Silvers' open cut mine project. After considering all submissions, the DPE has recommended its approval, taking into account both support and opposition, along with their respective arguments. As per the state's regulations, the project will be subjected to stringent conditions that will be closely monitored. The potential impact of the mine has been assessed through modelling, and the project design has been found acceptable by relevant industry authorities. In addition, the mine will be obligated to perform ongoing rehabilitation of mined areas and ensure the safety and stability of waste rock and tailings, addressing long-term biodiversity concerns. Bowdens Silvers has submitted their proposals to the DPE, which has been reviewed by experts in the field, and recommended for approval with conditions. The project will create job opportunities and generate income for local families for several decades, benefiting communities such as Lue and Rylstone. Therefore, rather than a threat, it should be perceived as an opportunity for both the local community and the project to thrive in partnership. |

I feel the project will be adequately assessed by industry professionals to ensure that all regulations are abided by along with continued monitoring and scrutiny. In my opinion the community concerns are simply because they don't want to see their once sleepy town become an expanded suburban lay out, long term this project will only benefit the town by giving locals jobs, the youth a future that can lead to engineering jobs, property valuation increases, better town services and community income increases which cause a flow on affect. This project will become an Australian commodity growth benefit also, exporting more overseas and adding to our overall GDP, there is so much benefit by allowing this project to go ahead, it will also contribute to securing Australia's silver reserves for future green energy purposes, long term this project will assist Australia in become carbon neutral. |

As a local Mudgee resident of 10 years, I am writing to express my support for the Bowdens Silver Project. This project has the potential to bring significant economic benefits to the region while maintaining a strong commitment to environmental stewardship and community engagement. The Bowdens Silver Project is a proposed mine that would extract silver, lead, and zinc from the ground using modern, sustainable mining techniques. The mine would create hundreds of direct and indirect jobs during construction and operation, injecting much-needed capital into our local economy. Silver is an essential metal in our modern world. It has a wide range of industrial applications and is used in the production of electronics, solar panels, batteries and medical equipment. With its unique properties and wide range of uses, silver plays a vital role in many sectors of our economy and is an essential commodity for continued economic growth and development. In addition to the economic benefits, the Bowdens Silver Project is committed to minimizing its impact on the environment. The project team has conducted extensive environmental studies and are committed to using best practices in water management, land rehabilitation, and biodiversity conservation. The project has engaged extensively with the local community, including holding multiple public meetings and consultations. The team has taken into account the concerns of stakeholders and has made changes to the project design to address these concerns. They have also committed to ongoing community engagement throughout the life of the project. The Bowdens Silver Project has already received significant support from the local community, with many residents recognizing the potential benefits to the area. Mudgee is well known for it's resource rich landscape and our town is supported by the local mines and the jobs they create. I believe that the Bowdens Silver Project represents a unique opportunity for the region to benefit from responsible resource development. The project has the potential to create jobs, stimulate economic growth, and contribute to the development of a sustainable, diversified economy in Mudgee and the surrounding areas. I urge you to consider supporting the Bowdens Silver Project and the positive impact it could have on the region. Sincerely, Matt Teague |

Silver and zinc are important metals decarbonising our society. Silver’s use in electronics and medical technologies makes it an essential commodity for decarbonisation. projects such as these help build resilience and diversity in our regional towns through increased employment and economic growth. The townships close to the Project such as Kandos and Rylstone have been heavily impacted by the closure of various industries such as the Kandos Cement works. Bowdens will provide hope for school leavers and displaced workers. Locals need work! Bowdens Silver have demonstrated environmental and social responsibility, an important consideration in my support. Minerals projects will be required into the future to generate Government revenue (which funds our key health and education programs) and provide critical minerals for societal growth. |

Silver will be required to help us transition into a greener lifestyle. I believe the use of silver via solar energy panels will help future generations to repair the damage previous generations have done to our planet. That is simply all I have to say, that these types of projects should go ahead. |

Iam a member of the local area, which i have to work away for 10 days at a time, so i don't get to spend time with my family. i would like this mine to go ahead as it would provide me with a job so i would be able to spend time with my family every day. everyone talks about green energy and if we are going to get there, we need these minerals, which are in short supply. most people don't understand that most electric vehicle requires a lead acid battery to keep important safety functions operating. |

I am a shareholder in Silver Mines Limited. I have reviewed the proposed development of the Bowden Silver Project and believe it has been carefully and responsibly planned to mitigate its potential environmental impact.. I believe it will have a long term positive social and economic impact on the town and the surrounding district. It will be an important replacement industry when the adjacent coal mines close. |

I support this project as it is one of the largest undeveloped silver mines project in Australia. This project will create job opportunities and support local economics including local small businesses and royalty income to local governments. Our daily needs including solar cells, medical devices, are all rely on minerals. Silver is one of the crucial minerals that we (human) cannot live without it. |

This submission supplements the issues discussed in my presentation to the IPC hearing on 17 February 2023 in support of the Bowdens Silver Project. There is no denying the importance of the metals to be mined by Bowdens Silver. Silver is to be used in renewable energy, electronics, medical dressings, and water purification. The average silver used per hybrid or battery electric vehicle is 15-50grams, silver remains the world’s best conductor and its higher oxidation resistance put it at a level of its own for use in electronics operating in harsh environments, every house in Australia has silver contacts in the switches the anti-oxidation properties prevent fires. Zinc is to be used in batteries as mentioned in my previous submission, galvanization of steel, alloys for diecasting, skin creams, paint, plastics, and ceramics. Lead is to be used in lead acid batteries, solders, ammunition, cable sheathing, and radiation protection. These are valuable materials essential to progress in Australia. The economic benefits to the project are also undeniable, with 300+ jobs during construction and 200+ ongoing jobs, not to mention the many indirect jobs which are based around mining, such as in technology, equipment, and services. I would also add that the benefits of the high levels of disposable income from people directly and indirectly employed in mining are, in my opinion, the reason Mudgee has been able to develop such an attractive tourist industry. Boutique shops, restaurants, and cafes cannot survive on weekend tourist foot traffic alone, it is the residents who can afford to buy food and products from these establishments that sustain them, many of these are directly employed by mines or indirectly through the many mining support businesses located in Mudgee. With the planned rundown of the Coal industry worldwide, Mudgee must diversify, or it will suffer significantly. Regarding the finding of the DPE as outlined in their assessment report and the proposed conditions of consent. As this project warrants and the NSW community would expect, a huge amount of effort and work has gone into assessing the impacts of the project and evolving the design to what we see today. The EIS has been prepared by a group of industry experts with vast experience in impact assessment and mining. In addition, the company engaged the services of several independent peer reviewers to ensure that no stone was left unturned. This work has been assessed by government departments including the Department of Planning and Environment, The Environment Protection Agency, DPE water, Biodiversity Conservation Division, Crown Lands, the Department of regional NSW, Mining, Exploration & Geoscience, NSW Resources Regulator, the Department of Primary Industries (Agriculture & Fisheries), Transport for NSW, NSW RFS, Heritage NSW, Dam Safety NSW, NSW Health and NSW Education. The Department of Planning and Environment subsequently engaged several independent experts to assess more complex technical sections of the EIS with all queries being dealt with by either the response from Bowdens Silver or by the recommended conditions of consent. I have listening to community concerns throughout the hearing process, read written submissions on the IPC website and those raised during the submissions process for DPE assessment, listened to concerns raised during community consultation by Bowdens Silver at CCC meetings, local shows, and community information days during the preparation of the EIS. I firmly believe that all issues raised have been soundly dealt with and can be appropriately managed through management plans including the requirements Bowdens Silver has accepted in the proposed conditions of consent, this position is supported by the DPE in their assessment report. On the recurring themes of community submissions. Lead - Lead risk is a major concern for residents however this concern appears to ignore the findings of the EIS. Experts engaged by community groups have unfortunately negated to inform the community of the comparatively minor risks of a mine site that does not include smelting operations. The EIS shows that the actual risk from the project is negligible, nevertheless, DPE has recommended stringent monitoring systems capable of real-time alerts be implemented to ensure that no risk from lead-contaminated dust occurs. Biodiversity - in this respect I believe that the EIS has been very comprehensive and that the project will result in some excellent long-term benefits to the area from a Native Ecosystem perspective. I have attached an image of the Lue area from 1965 obtained using the NSW government Historical Imagery spatial viewer on 23 February 2023, (https://portal.spatial.nsw.gov.au/portal/apps/webappviewer/index.html?id=f7c215b873864d44bccddda8075238cb) This image shows the high level of clearing in the Lue district at that time including the mine site and should give some indication of the high level of historic impact that has occurred in and around the mine site. You will be able to orient yourself by the location of Pyangle and Maloneys Road. The Biodiversity offset scheme along with rehabilitation of the mine site and screen plantings along Hawkins Ck will remain a long-term benefit to biodiversity in the region. Water (surface and groundwater) - similar to the issues around lead water impacts from the project remain a recurring theme of submissions, however, these seemingly ignore the findings of the EIS. The methods proposed to manage and mitigate any identified risks are proven, industry best practices, and the stringent monitoring scheme required by the conditions of consent will ensure the project does not have adverse impacts on water. I would also like to reiterate to the commission the responsibility of NSW to ensure that recovery of these materials does not cause environmental and social impacts as can happen when they are obtained from projects located in areas where assessment, approval, and management systems are not as sophisticated nor well-funded as they are in Australia. Australia and particularly NSW is the best place to conduct mining in the world, mining businesses, and the government departments responsible for the oversight of these operations are sophisticated, well-funded, and focused on continually improving methods to protect the environment and to keep people safe while producing the raw materials we require now and into the future. Finally, I cannot ignore the benefits that working in the mining industry directly and in a mining, support business has given me. I have for the last 10-plus years benefited from the comparatively high wages in the mining industry, this has allowed me to put down roots in the Mudgee region get married, start a family and build a property, I would like other people to have that privilege also. |

I have watched the development of Bowdens Silver Project, seen the site planning/changes and approvals and thought it to be a thorough process. The discussions and the reports on local resident and regional authorities approval of the development means long term opportunity for jobs in work and contracts and local business growth. The project has been well supported by companies and private financial funds and is a critical metal for the increase in technological change for communications, electrical industries, computer industries, electronic vehicles etc. This being one of the largest resources of silver in the world I wish it every success in getting in to production and contributing to Australian and the Worlds future of reduced greenhouse emissions and increased sustainability. |

With coal mining slowing down and the closure of many mines by 2030, we need to find new sustainable assets for a greener future, by using Australia's natural resources for self reliance. Australia has been sitting on many deposits of rare earth minerals which is included within silver and zinc.This mine will take away from fossil fuels, and coal mining, and help produce electronic cars, phones and many other high tech goods. The mine will provide employment for the region within Lue, whilst boosting the NSW economy. |

I believe that Australia will benefit from this project adding real value to our Nations wealth. Not only is silver a monetary metal at a time when the World is moving inevitably towards asset backed currencies it is also an outstanding electrically conducting metal with utility for many industries including health. We are entering an electrical age and Australia needs projects like this. I am a small investor in this project and I only ever invest in Australian projects. |

I am a supporter of this project as a shareholder. It is obvious that the economic benefits of this project are clear as silver is a highly sought out material used for a wide range of globally necessary industrial use as well as a precious metal. The communities will benefit from employment opportunities as well as supporting local towns businesses etc. I also know that Bowdens comply with all environmental procedures and mine in a responsible manner. I'm sure that the benefits overwhelmingly outweigh any other concerns if there are any. Thanks. |

I believe in and support this project as it would provide potential for employment and for economic growth for the local communities. The Bowden's Silver mine should follow stringent environmental protocols to be sustainable. Silver is crucial for Australia's immanent renewable energy transition. This project can benefit that happening and should go ahead. In my opinion the recommended conditions of consent adequately prevent, mitigate or offset any adverse impacts from the proposed development. |

I am a shareholder in Silver Mines Ltd. My research on the project indicates that it will have many benefits, the largest of which is the direct and indirect employment to members of the local community. Silver Mines Ltd has a good record in community support and management of the environment. The Company provides an opportunity for the production of silver which has significant benefit to environmentally sustainable industries, such as, solar panels and industry in general. Silver Mines has my very strong support for the application that has been lodged. Richard Larkins 0417 895562 |

I am concerned for youth future employment in the local area and the sustainability of the local towns. Projects such as Bowdens Silver are required in rural areas to provide jobs so that more people than ever do not have to leave the country for the city OR finish up on the dole with no hope in the future for them to progress. Silver is the best conductor of electricity and along with Zinc will be required in the future if Australia is to continue down the path of renewables Environmental and social responsibility is being demonstrated by the Bowdens Silver. |

I have no issues regarding the Bowdens Silver Project. I do believe it will enhance employment and commercial opportunities in the local area. This will help to stop the drain of people from rural Australia to the cities. And in my opinion, the recommended conditions of consent adequately prevent, mitigate or offset any adverse impacts from the proposed development. |

As Chairman of Silver Mines Limited, I would like to provide the following personal submission for consideration by the Independent Planning Commission for the assessment of the Bowdens Silver Project. Firstly, I refer to the Department of Planning and Environment’s Assessment Report and consider it essential to acknowledge the following references made in the referral: 1. The NSW Minerals Strategy (February 2019). This strategy notes that NSW “has significant expertise in mining, abundant mineral resources and regulations that ensure our minerals industry operates in an environmentally and socially responsible way.” The significant untapped resources of a range of minerals within NSW makes the State well-placed to meet not only our domestic requirements, but the increasing global demand needed to support advances in a range of industries and technologies and the development of renewable energy solutions. 2. Australia’s Global Resources Statement (2020). The Statement sets out the government’s policy and long-term reform agenda and vision for the Australian resources sector and highlights the government’s commitment to lowering Australia’s greenhouse gas emissions using a technology-led approach and to developing strategies to minimise our reliance on coal and fossil fuels. The approach emphasises the importance of boosting new resources projects, supporting new industries, best practice regulation, pursuing environmental outcomes and supporting communities and families. 3. The NSW Critical Minerals and High-Tech Metals Strategy (November 2021). This strategy outlines the NSW Government’s vision and commitment to build on NSW’s potential to become a major global supplier and processor of critical minerals and high-tech metals. Under the strategy, the NSW Government will “Establish Australia’s first Critical Minerals Hub in the Central West; Promote exploration for critical minerals resources, Activate the industry through the proactive development of supply chains; and Attract investment for critical minerals resources, downstream processing and recycling.” The Bowdens Silver Project is well-placed to form an integral part of these strategies, in particular as a project that will aid diversification in the State’s mining sector when pressure on coal mining activities increases over the coming decades. As a State Significant Development and as a robust project with strong possibilities for future expansion and growth, the Bowdens Silver Project will play an important role in the growth of the economy of our State. Although Bowdens Silver products are targeted to be sold as concentrate products, there is potential for these products to be refined in Australia to be used by our existing and emerging manufacturing industries for final products. With increasing geopolitical pressures it is also relevant to note that Australia currently relies on many critical minerals and high-tech metals sourced from challenging jurisdictions. Security of supply for these critical minerals and metals is a key rationale for the NSW Critical Minerals and High-Tech Metals Strategy. The other point I would like to comment on in the Assessment Report is that the Department of Planning and Environment notes the strategic context of the scale of the Bowdens Silver Deposit, being the largest undeveloped silver project in Australia and one of the largest globally. The report states “With improved silver pricing, greater resources definition, and refinements in processing, more of the resource may be economically extractable…” The Company will continue to significantly invest in further work and studies including expansion opportunities across an expanded open-pit, an underground operation or a potential new nearby development. This is an ongoing commitment of the Company. I also like to make some comments regarding the Bowdens Silver Public Hearing held in Mudgee on 15-17th February 2023 at which I was present throughout. I make these comments as a person who has held significant positions of leadership within Government and the Agricultural sector. I was the President of the Grains Council of Australia, (the peak body for representing grain producers across Australia), Chairman of the NFF Trade Committee, Board member of the NSW Farmers Association, Chairman of the National Rural Advisory Council and Chairman of the Grains Research and Development Corporation. I am still first and foremost a farmer based near Gunnedah in North West NSW. The cornerstone of my leadership was to provide honest and accurate information to all stakeholders at all times, sadly it is apparent that many of the residents in the Lue, Rylstone, Kandos and Mudgee areas have been misled. This has caused unnecessary but genuine angst and concern for some of these residents. It was deeply concerning to hear that some of the negative representations made during the IPC hearing included false or misleading information. Although I understand that this issue is apparent at other public hearings for similar mining and other projects, it was distressing to see the perpetuation of this false information, despite the large amount of information in the EIS document, the information provided through the Community Consultative Committee (CCC), open days and other forums which addressed many of the issues raised as concerns and clearly outlined the measures the company has taken to mitigate any adverse impacts and ensure the health and wellbeing of those residents and the strengthening and continuity of their communities. The community representation seen at the Hearing was not representative of the community at large. The majority of the presentations at the hearing objected to the Project, whereas the results from our comprehensive community work over the years, the Social Impact Assessment, EIS Submissions, the recent independent public survey all confirmed that the Project has considerable local support. I can also say that the community representation was not indicative from my personal interactions with the community over the years through attendance at our Information Open Days, attendance at sponsored events and shows, and my participation as a member of Community Consultation Committee meetings from 2016-2019. I would also add that the CCC was extremely disappointing as much of the detailed information provided by the Company in the CCC meetings as well as by our specialist experts did not make it into the community via the members of that committee. My belief was that the CCC was to be a conduit of information from the Community to the company and vice versa. I would like to comment on one particular presentation at the public hearing. A young man, Corey Armstrong-Lane spoke of the opportunity mining had given him as an apprentice with Moolarben Coal and how other youth in the area should have the same opportunities now and in the future. I believe he was introduced to the mining industry through work experience at Bowdens when he was a student at Kandos High School. I know his sentiments sum up the views of many of the young from that area. I am also extremely proud of our small contribution to his success and I am sure our programs will expose the youth of that area to the many opportunities that are available. Finally, I have every confidence in the Department’s assessment of the Project that it is in the public interest and that the Company has achieved a good balance between maximising the recovery of a mineral resource of State significance while minimising any potential environmental impacts. I can have this confidence because I am fully aware of the many peer reviews by ourselves and the Department’s experts over a considerable time frame to ensure the rigour of not only the process but the eventual recommendation. I would like to take the opportunity to acknowledge and thank our Bowdens Silver team and all our consultants who have undertaken their very thorough processes over the past 6.5 years to reach this point of project determination. |

I write in support of the Bowdens Silver project. There has been much negative media coverage and opportunistic political leveraging surrounding mineral extraction and it's impact on the environment. Until our country's demand for and reliance on minerals is not required we should look to the most economically efficient, environmentally sustainable manner in which we procure our natural resources from the ground and commit to it's ongoing improvement during the mine's lifecycle. This statement will of course not prove popular with those focused purely on the environment however there are larger factors to be considered. The Bowdens project has satisfied the strict requirements required by the DPI and as such will also be closely monitored for adherence. The job opportunities, injection of investment and prosperity into the region cannot be underestimated. Regional communities are too often left out of government investment, infrastructure and health improvements - the mining investment will pick up that shortfall. The mine will prove a responsible community member, consisting of local community employees who will be held to account for the protection of the environment as much as possible, for long-term benefit. Environmental impact and conservation is a priority for mines and most individuals who work for the mines understand and support protecting our environment, but until we do not require the procurement of minerals from the earth we must work together in respect and partnership with the environment as much as possible. Mines are not evil, greedy big corporates focused on making money for their shareholders. They are an essential service who we should work together with to our mutual benefit. In addition Sliver Mines Ltd are an Australian resource company - a great benefit to the Australian population vs an international company. I fully support the Bowden's project approval, on balance its total merit outweighing it's cost. |

As a small share holder in Silver Mines Limited, and previously a regular visitor to the Mudgee area, I would like to add my support to the proposed Bowdens Silver project located near Lue in NSW. The broader Mudgee area is a unique and beautiful regional area within NSW with a number of the towns and villages emanating the quintessential Australian ‘small town’ country charm. In my opinion, some of these areas are being transformed with the uniqueness lost in the name of progress in our fast changing world. Having said that, it is imperative that regional Australian towns remain economically and socially viable. To this end, I believe the Bowdens Silver project will strike the necessary balance between preserving the amenity and uniqueness of the area while ensuring the survival of the region and, more broadly, secure Australia’s access to a high quality source of silver. While there already exists a number of mines in the area, I believe the significance of the Bowdens Silver project is that it is primarily centred around the extraction of silver. Silver is essential in the development of new industrial and technological applications, not least of which is in the environmental sphere. Indeed, the use of silver in the greening of world energy supplies is manifestly important and it will be absolutely essential in this regard. Additionally, silver has a long history as a precious metal and store of wealth. In the current uncertain economic climate, and with political tension increasing with China, I believe it is imperative that Australia has access to a high quality long term supply of silver. This is not just from the standpoint of its industrial application and its use in emerging technologies, but also undeniably in terms of its position as a precious metal. I appreciate that this last point may not resonate with parties depending upon their view of the mechanics of the the world economy, however I feel the strategic potential of silver to re-emerge as an economic store of wealth should not be dismissed. I believe the successful development of the Bowdens Silver project is a matter not just of local and State importance, but more broadly a matter of significant national security. It is my opinion that Silver Mines Limited has been very thorough in developing this project to date and I remain confident that should approval be granted for construction of the proposed mine, it will be operated with appropriate sensitivity to the local community and the surrounding environment. The recommended conditions of consent will aid in this endeavour. The project has the potential to bring significant economic benefit to the region specifically, and Australia more broadly, and to this end I believe the Bowdens project should be approved by the Independent Planning Commission. |

I am a resident of the Mid-western region and have a long standing interest in agriculture and how rural communities respond to change. Sequential change in land utilisation in the Lue Valley or other regional areas in Australia is a daily event and part of how we adapt to new conditions and opportunities. Big changes cause fear; small changes barely noticed. Lue locals have been aware of drilling activity in local tenements for 20 or more years so the recent planning for future exploration at the mine site should come as no surprise. That said, I have nothing but sympathy for families that live close to the mine, many of whom are understandably worried about the future, as this is a big project with the potential to disrupt. Land values especially. Lue has seen change previously in the mid 1990s when a local farming family bravely commenced a hugely successful rural tourism business on land with little agricultural potential. Known as Louee Enduro, it was dusty and noisy on weekends with high numbers of vehicle passes. Local residents that rallied against this development quietly or not so quietly moved away. The nearby dolomite mine was another initiative that successfully supplied much needed lime & dolomite fertiliser to the agriculture sector. The land in question was not suitable for agriculture either. It too caused grief to those who lived closest. The downside was explosions, truck passes, dust and noise, not to mention the visual impact it has had. Further afield, the villages of Ulan and Wollar faced massive disruption as each became encircled by coal mines. Both were surrounded by land with unimpressive agricultural credentials. Some saw massive opportunity in the accommodation sector, others evacuated. Adaptation has many faces. No-one could deny the wealth generated by coal in and around the Mudgee region and the effect it has on our standard of living. Over time government planning and environmental regulations have become significantly tougher. Really tough! Worker safety and environmental protection practices of mining companies in the region have been impressive. The land occupied by Bowden Silver has limited agricultural potential and is unseen from the Lue Rd. It too will have a number of vehicle passes, dust and noise all of which seem to have been addressed in their submission to the Department of Planning and Environment (DPE). I cannot see how the mine will affect tourism other than make the road busier. Over the last 6 years or so, Bowden Silver has built up an impressive portfolio of scientific data on flora, fauna, topography, hydrology and geology. The data has been collected by committed employees and consultants who have impressive academic and practical qualifications. This research has been paid for by the shareholders. The data has been freely available to members of the public. Those of us who live in the area have much to be thankful for as our knowledge base of the local environment has been significantly enhanced. In the last 12 months, I have read nearly every report that the company has released to the ASX under the ticker SVL. I am not a shareholder, you don’t need to be, as these reports are freely available. The company has analysed hundreds of core samples as a result of their drilling activities. The reports are complex and very technical especially the geological explanations - most of which I could not understand. Despite that, three things leapt out:- (1) Calling this a lead mine (or even a silver mine) does not do justice to the mineral wealth that has been uncovered or the number of precious metals found. The concentration, purity and accessibility of these ore bodies is extraordinary. (2) If mined, the wealth generated in 20 years could easily surpass that from agriculture in the valley over the last 200 years. The trickle-down effect to the Mudgee and especially the Rylstone / Kandos community and NSW might turn out to be a game changer. (3) Silver, lead, zinc and copper are all essential industrial elements needed in decarbonising rural NSW. Gold is a bonus. I do not pretend to have detailed knowledge about the project as it is enormously complex and very technical. On reflection, I was quite naïve to write about my concerns for water purity in Lawson Creek and the downstream effects on agriculture a year or two ago. At the time, like many locals, I was nervous about the mine's potential impact. Since then, I have read Bowden’s newsletters & updates. I attended a community information day last year and had interesting and transparent discussions with Tony McClure and an array of friendly staff and consultants. It was well organised but sadly not attended by as many people as they may have been hoping for despite widespread public invitations to attend the event. Sometime later, I met with the two impressive Corkery (QLD) consultants for an hour or so. They work on mining projects all over Australia. My fears of leakage from the mine into Lawson Creek were quickly allayed by descriptions of water and solids recycling, bituminous membrane linings to be used in dams, sealing membranes & use of sub-surface moisture technology to detect possible leakage. I was also sceptical of the oversight of mines by governments. I asked if they thought the NSW DPE had the skills, tenacity and resources to monitor the development stages of the mine to protect the environment against dubious activities. It was heartening to hear them speak highly of the DPE. I got the impression from our discussions that we are lucky to be in NSW rather than some of the other states in which they have worked. I was further reassured after hearing a representative from the DPE & Corkery speak at the hearing last week. It appears as though some very strict planning conditions have been included in the approval process and I'm confident that the DPE will ensure these are adhered to by Bowdens. In my humble opinion, there is a lot of very good science that has been carried out as part of the DA. The arguments against the mine do not appear to counter the research that has been conducted in what appears to be a highly professional manner. This research has come at considerable cost. Bowden Silver should be congratulated on what they have achieved and the way they have conducted themselves. They have possibly raised the bar on all future mining applications in NSW. Our local community should be thankful and I hope that the next stage is managed as successfully as the first. |

I firmly believe this project will provide benefits to our community and support economy in general. Minerals and metals have a significant impact on our daily life. For example, Silver is a powerful antimicrobial agent and can help fight infections heal wounds, aid in cold and flue prevention. They have become a critical component for modern living, Not they are used to benefit human wellbeing, but also creating job opportunity by promoting this project to develop in the mining industry further. |

I would consider myself as someone who is supportive of the mining industry here in Australia as it has provided me with a very rewarding and varied career over the past 25 years. My job has taken me to most States and Territories here in Australia and I have seen first-hand the positive benefits that mining can bring to remote and rural Australia. In this country we are in a unique position to be able to help deliver the transition to a low carbon economy and do it in a way that respects the local environment, heritage and the communities in which we operate. Here in Australia, we have a well-regulated framework of laws by which mining companies must operate and companies wishing to secure the metals that we mine can do so safe in the knowledge that the metals have been extracted in a socially and environmentally responsible way. Silver and zinc are key metals in societies drive to decarbonise the global economy. For remote and rural economies, I have seen first-hand the significant opportunities that mining can bring in terms of well-paid jobs, opportunities for youth employment and training (apprentices) as well as great benefits to local businesses. Mining companies are very focused on ESG and as such place a great deal of emphasis on enhancing the local communities where they operate. The towns of Lue, Rylstone and Kandos can look to benefit from, sponsorship, community projects, upgrading of local infrastructure and increased biodiversity by virtue of having a mining operation in the local area. Mining can help deliver real long-term sustainable benefits to local communities that remain long after the mine has ceased to operate. |

I support this project as it continues to add to the robust state of Australian business in general, and also contributes to the stability of general employment and financial gain by not only the companies that develop these types of enterprises, but creating an on-flow of business to add to the wellbeing of this countries population and to boost up the ability of Australian companies to manufacture and produce goods and services. The more We can produce home grown products and services, the less reliance the country as a whole will have on offshore supply. |

I am supporting the conditional approval of the proposed development. I believe that the Project is in the public interest. This Project is a significant asset to NSW. It is the largest undeveloped silver project in Australia and one of the largest globally with a 23-year life. The Team at Bowden's has delivered an environmentally responsible project and the referral by the DPE to the IPC is recognition of the significant long-term economic and social benefits that the Project will deliver to the local communities of Lue, Rylstone, Kandos and Mudgee as well as the broader Mid-Western Regional area of NSW. There are benefits of long-term employment, training and business opportunities for the region. |

I am an earth scientist with a post graduate qualification. The location of Bowdens Silver is expected to have limited impact on groundwater due to its geographic location and geoechnical measures to be taken. The project will provide long term local employment opportunities because there are established communities with convenient commute distances. The silver produced by the project will provide additional scarce resource for use by the solar photovoltaic industry. Almost all solar panels currently is production utilise silver for electrical connections. Approximately 8% of silver production goes into solar cell production and as worldwide use of photovoltaics increases, demand for silver might reasonably be expected to increase. https://resourceworld.com/how-much-silver-is-needed-for-the-solar-panel-industry/ |

In my professional opinion Bowden Silver Limited has covered and met all aspects of the eight (8) "Key Issues" item 6 above in its submissions to the DPE and born out is the "Assessment Report prepared by the DPE and its recommended conditions of consent" I have visited/inspected the site on a number of occasions with the Companies professional staff and found their presentations and deliberations open, indepth and informative.of all aspects of the project. The Community engagement by Bowden Silver through "open days and community meetings have been well attended and received. The Company has been an excellent Corporate Citizen in numeous ways, including the support of sporting bodies and other organisations in the Mudgee region. I have no doubt that this project will be of great benefit economically and socialy to the Mudgee Lue area and the Midwestern Region of NSW. This project has my total support.

I would like to offer my support for The Bowdens Silver Project. The project offers significant and substantial economic, social, community and national and competitive benefits that will be delivered to local communities, as well as the broader Mid-Western Regional area of NSW; and the Australian population. I believe the benefits of the project far outweigh the perceived costs, which are reasonably minimal in the context of what this project will deliver. |

Bowdens Silver Project ranks globally as one of the largest undeveloped silver mines. It has a 23 year life span which could possibly be extended. As such this project will provide significant long term economic and social benefits to the local communities and NSW's mid-western region. As a member of The Australian Conservation Foundation I support this project as it is environmentally responsible. I disclose that I am a small Silver Mines Limited shareholder after being impressed with this company and the enormous potential of the project. |

- Living in close proximity to a coal mine I can say that it has very limited if any on day to day life. The community I live in thrives from mining and agriculture together, without both it would be a shadow of what it is today - Silver is an important metal for renewable energy. Particularly solar panels and electric cars plus many more. - Silver is gaining more importance and uses in the medical industry which is very exciting. - It provides many jobs for the local communities especially as coal mining is being forced to wind back, these communities need projects like these to keep them going. |

I would like to provide my full support for the Bowdens Silver Project. I have been aware of the Bowdens Silver Project for a number of years now and believe it will provide many benefits to Lue and the Mid-Western Region. The company has conducted extensive environmental and social assessments which have been peer reviewed by experts and government and ultimately, the DPE has recommended approval of the project after an intensive and thorough assessment. The DPE has also proposed a range of consent conditions that will be enforceable and ensure the mine is run in a way that meets industry and best practice requirements. The approval of this mine will provide jobs and diversity for our region. The wider area has lived side by side with mining operations and seen how mining can provide benefits while not negatively impacting other important industries such as agriculture, hospitality and tourism. Mining provides a pathway for our region’s residents to form long and meaningful lives in the region now and for generations to come. The approval of the Bowdens Silver Project will help that positive legacy continue. |

We believe that this planned project should go ahead and proceed on the grounds of it's significance as being a major employment prospect not only for the mine its self but the the economic benefit for the community around it. Over the years, they have been open and frank about all due processes and stages and appear to support the culture of the local community. Recent negative reports of the mine destroying prime agriculture land is certainly incorrect as this land, at its best, could only be described as marginal agricultural land. The benefits of this project going ahead certainly outweigh the negative. |

The project would provide a robust jobs boost for the region whilst also assisting to create a sustainable future via production of key minerals and resources to help produce batteries and other essential components for a greener future. Safety, environmental and sustainability metrics will be in place to ensure the operation adds value to all stakeholders. I therefore support the development of the mine and production plant |

Denying a country the ab to develop locally would be doing it great injustice. China is preparing to cut off solar wafer exports and its technology so developing a more substantial homegrown industry is vital. Svl had taken all the necessary steps to protect the local community and environment. This submission is in support of the development of this mine so our quest for renewables can move forward. |

I have reviewed the assessment report and proposed conditions of consent and am confident the project will deliver the expected benefits to the people of NSW with low risk concerning the key issues identified in the assessment process. I am also confident that the proponent will work diligently to fulfil their approval obligations as I have been aware of the proponents performance in the exploration and resource definition phases of mine development. As a former regulator of the NSW exploration and mining sector, I am aware Silver Mines Ltd. demonstrated a track record of professionalism in compliance with their exploration licences. Silver is a strategic metal for the transition from fossil fuels to renewable energy and this project promises to bring to the people of NSW and Australia the economic benefits of meeting the climate challenges. I also disclose I am a small shareholder of Silver Mines Ltd., acquiring the shares as part of an investment portfolio in retirement. My confidence in the Company’s commitment to social and environmental sustainability was a pre-eminent reason for investing in it. |

I would like to express my strong support for the Bowdens Silver Mine. For at least 100 years there has been mining around the Mudgee region and it has had nothing but positive impacts on the town. Mudgee has grown and thrived and the surrounding coal mines have not had negative impacts on wine growing or tourism, which I understand are some of the concerns being expressed now. Mining has evolved and continues to evolve. It is safer, more environmentally sound, better at extracting and maximising. If we take those facts into consideration, and the fact that the region needs jobs and economic support, we need to strongly ask the question of why SHOULDN'T the silver mine be approved? Covid has shown that Australia can be vulnerable when we rely on other countries for critical supplies and that makes me concerned for the future. We need to invest in what we have. As far as I'm concerned, this is progress and the move away from fossil fuels is inexorable. If the DPE thinks it is sound and in the public interest, you cannot ignore what's needed for the greater good, for the sake of a noisy minority. Please do the right thing and take into consideration the bigger picture and the future of us all. |

I strongly support appropriate environmental controls and safeguards being in place with respect to the Bowdens Silver development. Having reviewed them in detail, I believe that the proposed conditions of consent provide the necessary and appropriate safeguards and controls. In the course of my life I have seen, lived in communities impacted by, worked with and reviewed a wide variety of mining and other development projects. I feel confident that the proposed conditions of consent for Bowdens Silver ensure the appropriate balance between a development necessary to meet Australia’s urgent need for responsibly sourced critical minerals to assist our energy transition, and the need to protect the amazing country we live in. I firmly believe that we cannot achieve what we seek to achieve in decarbonising our society without the very product - silver - that this development seeks to produce. Silver is and will continue to be a critical component in the electronics and solar cells and medical technologies that will form a very large part of our future. We also cannot afford to rely on the supply of critical minerals such as silver from countries where sovereign risk and political instability is high and where there are - unlike New South Wales - insufficient environmental protections in place. I am also excited by the significant positive socio-economic opportunities this development can bring to the areas of Lue, Rylstone and Kandos. I am separately a co-founder of a charity (UNIQ You) which aims to inspire female high school students to pursue roles in industries such as construction and resources which provide economic stability and opportunities. I know first hand from that work, what wonderful opportunities this development will bring to the local community’s young people. These opportunities are especially important as the local area begins to experience the effects of Australia’s energy transition including a loss of opportunities in the local coal sector. I am proud of the way Bowdens Silver has productively and continuously engaged with the community. It is the most positive example I have seen in that regard having been part of the industry for over 20 years. |

Silver Mines should be allowed to proceed with the mining of Bowdens, because of the economic benefits to the local economy and the national economy. The product produced would provide material for the development of “green” energy needed to reduce greenhouse emissions |

Dear Commissioners I wish to make a submission in regard to the Bowdens Silver proposed mine. I live near Gunnedah where we operate a farming business. We have a coal mine approximately 3 km from our property. I have read and heard comments from people who claim that this mine will destroy the area around Lue. From my experience living in a community with mining and agriculture, it is plain to see that mining and agriculture can live side by side and mining can actually benefit agriculture and the community substantially. Many of the services we use for our business and also our lifestyle would not be available if mining was not in this area. If Gunnedah had to rely on agriculture solely it would be a backwater, instead it is a thriving town and community. I remember many of the negative comments when Whitehaven was developing operations around Gunnedah, none have come to fruition. Apart from a few of the older generation or the very financially secure the vast majority would be up in arms if it was suggested Gunnedah could do without mining. I fear for this community's future when coal mining winds back or ceases, we will wish we had a Bowdens Silver to fill the void and sustain our community. Katherine |

To whom it may concern The approval process for the Bowdens project has been a long and arduous journey but I congratulate management on its clarity and transparency despite a false and carefully orchestrated misinformation program designed to skittle the outcome. As a shareholder, I maintained a forensic overview of the process and was always impressed with management’s efforts to keep the community and other stakeholders informed of progress and plans and its ongoing willingness to overcome any obstacles. I have a close family connection with agricultural production and am therefore very conscious of environmental impacts and to that end I applaud Bowden’s focus on preserving the status quo around the project. As we transition to green energy, Bowdens will make a significant contribution through its prime silver and zinc resources. The company also runs sizable stock herds in the precinct and has taken painstaking steps to ensure the local community will have maximum benefit in this sphere of farming activity. How exciting to think that Bowdens will move to mining approval status whilst adhering with the strictest environmental regulations. Boasting the largest silver deposits in the Southern Hemisphere, the mining licence approval will harness a plethora of economic, welfare, productivity and financial advantages for the local community whilst preserving the integrity of their lifestyle. I wish to thank all parties for their patience and thoroughness and I look forward to approval of this project which will eventually provide a significant boost to the New South Wales economy, greatly increase mining royalties for the government and help enhance Australia’s reputation as a profitable mining destination for international investors. |

To Whom it may concern, I have lived in and visited the Central West region encompassing Lue, Rylstone, Kandos, Ilford and Mudgee for over 35 years. I have a deep connection and interest in the area. I am firmly in support of the Bowdens Silver Project located at Lue. I have followed closely the process and submissions for planning and DPE approval and commend Bowdens for their transparency, engagement with the local communities and faultless, best practice science based approach. I have witnessed the social and economic marginalising brought about by the closure of the Kandos cement works and the Charbon Colliery, not merely through loss of direct employment but the knock on effect of loss of support industries, local development , economic activity and resulting marginalistion of the local communities. With the movement to clean energy and eventual closure of Ulan, Moolarben and Wilpinjong coal mines where will the jobs come from with these closures, which supports 15% of Mudgee alone's, workforce? Bowdens Silver project will provide around 300 ongoing operational jobs post construction which will help to alleviate the aforementioned closures and provide economic stimulus and much improved social and community infrastructure. Particularly to the town of Kandos - once known as 'the town that built sydney' - now perhaps 'the town that Sydney forgot'. The mine is first and foremost a silver mine, contrary to claims by some who appose the project, with some by products of zinc and lead. Best practice, peer reviewed site and wider area research, planning and consultation has been a key feature of moving this project to a final determination by the IPC. This includes but not limited to indigenous mapping and considerations, water management, minimising environmental impact, long term re habilitation post mine life and deep community engagement and support. I am firmly in support of the project and the move to re juvinate the local communities whom will benefit from the project. Your's faithfully Tom Nursey direct employment, the supply of support industries, economic investment into the local communities and support for local development, educational and sponsorship initiatives. |

Dear Madam/Sir, I object to the Bowdens Silver Pty Ltd mine project. The Bowdens mine will be an open cut lead, zinc and silver mine. In reality, it will be a lead mine. It will produce more lead than silver, with project estimates of 95,000 tonnes of lead, 130,000 tonnes of zinc and 1,879 tonnes of silver. The project could have serious impacts on the health and livelihoods of the people, and the water in the district surrounding the mine. Impacts to ground and surface water will be significant and have not been adequately assessed in the EIS nor addressed in the NSW Department of Planning's Assessment Report. No peer review has been conducted on groundwater contamination risks from dangerous chemicals like cyanide and heavy metals like lead. There is significant risk of tailings dam leachate bypassing the seepage collection ponds and entering the groundwater system. The hazardous nature of substances in the waste rock dump and tailings dam merit a local and detailed model of hydrogeological processes to adequately manage the proposed activity. The discharge of acid drainage into water bodies could cause an instant threat to the biota and ecological balance. It would also threaten drinking water supplies and irrigation systems downstream from the mining site. Key technical detail surrounding the proponent's acid mine drainage management is inadequate and unresolved, as highlighted by the Earth Systems review detailed in the Department's Assessment report. Acid mine drainage risks would burden the region with a toxic, permanent legacy, in contradiction to principles of intergenerational equity and ecologically sustainable development. No plan was presented by Bowdens to drain or remove the tailings dam. Does this mean it will remain in situ forever? Bowdens has acknowledged leakage from the dam will continue after mining stops, but there is no plan in place to fix this problem or even manage it. This means the New South Wales government will permit Bowdens to build and operate this dam and sentence the region to a toxic intergenerational legacy. The dam will be there forever, and generations to come will have to live with the consequences of leakage of toxic chemicals into a currently pristine environment. And it will also be allowed to leave a gapping 53-hectare hole behind too, forever. If this mine was, unfortunately, allowed to go ahead it must be ensured that corporate responsibility is a hallmark of this project. Bowdens must remove the dam at the closure of the mine and return the ground under it to it’s former pristine state. They must also refill the hole according to environmental regulations and return the area to it’s former state. A company does not get to make huge profits and leave only devastation behind. The combination of a lack of technical detail across key aspects of mine viability and the complex nature and location of the site means the Bowdens Project should be refused. Save Lue and Mudgee from potential environment disaster. Please reject this project. For the only planet we have. |

I feel that Bowden Silver mine shows nothing but positive impact upon the local community and further, it demonstrates the ability to provide local employment and the opportunity for local adults and youth to better them self with permanent and part time employment in many different fields and trades. The longevity of all of this will show reductions in crime and unemployment benefits. Myself being a local resident of Lue I am excited to see that Bowden Silvermine can bring so much life back into the community and infrastructure . |

I, Grant Gjessing, wish to register my positive support for the Bowdens Silver Project. I am the Managing Director of a local business called Strait Up Cranes & Rigging which has employed, empowered and trained locals in our area since 2008. I am a true local born and bred residential of Mudgee and my parentage on both sides of my family were also born and raised here. The Gjessing name may be unusual to people outside our area but the name has been longstanding with our community for generations. Not many submissions would have two Great uncles forever immortalised on the cenotaph for their ultimate sacrifice to their town and country during WW1. I grew up in a sleepy Mudgee where not much opportunity existed and not many were keen to stay after schooling here. Compare this with present day Mudgee, where local businesses and the town has grown extensively to accommodate the real reason for Mudgee’s prosperity which is growth in the mining sector. I have built my business on supplying a service to the local coal mines and have grown this little business into the heavy lift specialist that Strait Up Cranes is currently. The local coal mines are in my eyes good local corporate citizens which help our local community in any way they can, from sponsoring local sports teams to helping after natural disasters and donating to local charities. I feel that Bowdens will also be good community corporate citizens as they are already heavily involved in local sports and charities. They also seem to have strong and sustainable engagement practices with local businesses. With these mines comes local business opportunities for support and supply services. I have seen from previous mine construction in Ulan, that contractors work on the project at construction phase and stay to raise their families in our local area. Unless these infrastructure projects are undertaken within the region, they may not have had a reason to come to the area in the first place. Small businesses such as Strait Up which services these larger corporations also employ, train and provide opportunities for school leavers to start their career. Who doesn’t want to drive a massive crane at a construction site. We pride ourselves on our employment of Trainees within the local community and the work that such mining projects provides enables us to provide opportunities to the younger generation to get into specialised industries such as ours. We in turn at Strait Up Cranes support other local businesses by purchasing materials, equipment, site vehicles, trucks, PPE and uniforms, and utilise service companies that help us spend our dollar locally such as: Double R, McCarroll Ford, Mudgee Toyota, Petries Mitre 10, Bunnings Mudgee, HiTech IT, Brand Me Mudgee, Bisec to list but a few. We at Strait Up Cranes also support local charities and sporting groups. We also support smaller sporting groups such as in Coolah, Dunedoo and Gulgong. I take pride in the fact that our staff are heavily engaged in community activities for the benefit of all. I trust that Bowdens will be accountable and faithful to their planning approvals and development application commitments. They have environmental guidelines in which to operate their business. This will be regulated by the mining regulator who are fair and just in their directive to ensure compliance. Thank you for the opportunity to provide this submission in support of the Bowdens Silver Project. |

Silver is critical to so many green technologies, including electric vehicles and renewable energy. There is a significant predicted shortfall of silver and this mine will go a long way to helping the planet move away from fossil fuels. Direct negative local environmental impacts are massively outweighed by the benefits that the mine will have |

The Bowdens Mine has one of the largest silver deposits in Australia. Silver is such an important metal in existing and emerging technologies and may well be in short supply in the near future. This would escalate the price provide the state and the country a rich flow of revenue. It would be a great benefit to the local community during construction and operation. It could well be on the scale of the Cadia Mine near Orange,which has contributed so much to the Central West. |

I'm fully supportive behind the development of the Bowden's Silver Project. I believe it will have a significant, positive socioeconomic impact on the local community and the wider economic benefits from developing the largest undeveloped silver mine in Australia, would only drive the EV/renewable energy revolution forward. Mining is regarded as being the backbone to Australia and having an Australian owned and operated miner that is conscious of both the environmental and social aspects of this project, further enhances my support. My main concern surrounding the lack of immediate development is if this project is not approved at this time, the foreign investment risk surrounding such a lucrative project for both the state and the wider nation increases dramatically. |

To: The Independent Planning Commission (IPC) of New South Wales Re: Support for SVL’s Bowden Silver Project My name is Joshua Mao. I am the CEO and Director of a boutique private equity firm with offices in Perth and Melbourne. I believe that the Bowden’s Silver Project will position Australia as one of the major silver suppliers globally and be a major asset for Australia going forward. The Bowden Silver Project will aid the reliable supply of silver into the burgeoning (and essential) renewable energy and electric car industries. • Silver is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels which are the current leading source of renewable energy. • Silver is also an essential ingredient in the manufacturing of electric cars which require silver in their battery packs, electric engines, and battery management systems. • Bowden’s Silver Project represents the largest single silver resource in Australia and needs to be brought into development to aid and stabilize the supply of silver into the rapidly growing renewable energy and electric cars industries. I further support the development of the Bowden’s Silver Mine for a number of other reasons: • The project is 100% Australian owned. • The project will develop significant local and regional jobs in the order of: o Estimated 320 Construction jobs. o Estimates 280 permanent jobs. o Jobs are estimated to continue for 23 years, but very likely we continue further into the future as Bowden considers high-grade underground mining options in the future. • Capital Development expenditure of $250 million will have a positive knock-on effect to local and regional suppliers and service industries. • Water Supply has been managed such that it will be self-contained and not impact or impede or compete with local or regional agricultural. • The development of this project will result in significant taxes for the State of NSW. • Importantly - this development will support the production of key materials needed in the rapidly developing renewable energy and electric vehicle, aerospace, and general electronics industries. I strongly urge the IPC to approve the development of the Bowden’s Silver Mine to realise the benefits mentioned above. Kind regards, Joshua Mao |

I fully support the approval of this project. As a person who has always lived in Lue and currently still does and also being an employee of Bowdens Silver, I have seen both sides of the project and have heard all arguments from both sides. I personally believe that the good out-weighs the bad. A lot of people have mentioned that there are a large number of jobs available in the other mines in our area currently but have failed to mention that most of these jobs require you to already have the skills required for the job which I have experienced first-hand before starting with Bowdens. Being forced to work part time in multiple jobs to make up for not having a full-time job. A large number of people against this project have never been in that position before, therefore don't know how hard it is to get your foot in the door of an industry you wish to work in with no prior experience. The approval of this project will give that opportunity to a lot more people that are in the same position. I have worked at Bowdens silver for the past few years and have seen how involved and willing to help the people in the local area where it is needed. Which coincides with the small community that has always stuck together through times of need. It is good to see such a big company willing to help the little people even with the smallest things. Which to me is a lot more than what others that claim to be active community members have done in the past. There are some concerns within the community about the proposed mine, but with the adequate controls put in place none of this can be a problem. There is no reason that this small town and a mine that will bring so much to the surrounding areas that are in need (Kandos) can't live and prosper side by side. |

I think this is an important mine as silver is a very scare resource worldwide. Demand for silver far exceeds available supply, and it is an important component of solar panels, computing, high tech and defence capabilities. It is important the mine be built to NSW & Australian standards, with regard to protecting the environment, maintaining air quality, relocating any habitat, and ensuring that hazards are well managed. It will be a solid employer for the local area which is very positive, as well as bring revenue for the state and local governments. Any aboriginal culture should be respected if possible. Health and safety of the workers must be of utmost importance. |

NSW will be closing umpteen Coal Mines in the near future due to climate change and legislation and a 20 year Operational Silver Mine would undoubtedly assist some Mine Employees transfer from coal to Silver. Also the amount of Government revenue from such a venture would not be insignificant. I am presently a small Retail Shareholder in Silver Mines Limited (5000 shares only) and have no further interest in the outcome of the outcome of the mine. |

I believe this project will generate 1000s of jobs, increasing many families quality of life. This will generate more income for not only the government but also local businesses for many years to come. Silver is a huge part of our clean future, used in electric vehicles, solar panels and so much more. There are so many benefits to this project, both short term and long term, for the local community and for the state. |

As a long term local resident to the village of lue! I support the bowdens silver project going ahead! I believe that it can only have beneficial impacts on lue and surrounding areas through employment opportunities both direct and indirect, as well as help the local facilities such as the school to stay open and other local small businesses such as cafes, pubs and clubs and much more, it will boost the local economy through moving more people into the region and keep the town moving forward! As the coal mines within the region slowly decline in operation, and the world looks towards a more sustainable and renewable future mudgee and surrounding towns and villages will slow down too, the bowdens silver project will not only supply life and the possibility of growth within the region potentially bringing small towns such as kandos and rylstone back to their former glory! And supplying a secure future of jobs for locals within the region for many years to come! It will also supply us with the necessary metals and deposits required to build and create infrastructure such as solar panels and much more to allow us to move into a more sustainable future! |

I'm undertaking this submission after being invited to do so a shareholder in silver mines limited. My interest with Bowden's started after seeing the many benefits that silver as a metal product can produce and deliver. These products will assist with many industries including climate change. silver has many applications. Given there is massive demand worldwide and known supply shortages, this project is well placed to deliver significant returns. and benefits to all stakeholders. My initial research prior to investing was thorough and I believe the board and management have consulted well with local communities, and their representatives. The company's board and management have liaised well with their shareholders promoting a sustainable and safe project with a number of benefits to the local communities, and therefore would ask that the IPC support the DPE and their recommendations for the project to proceed |

I believe in an Australia that contributes to renewable energy sources. We can be a powerhouse in this area for many years to come. Silver is an important part of that, and it’s incumbent upon us to mine it responsibly and to develop a resource that contributes to green energy. I’m personally reassured by the DPEA’s submissions in regards to the concerns raised by the local community, and believe it’s in the state’s best interests — environmentally and economically — for the project to be approved. |

I would like to see the Bowdens Silver mine go ahead as it will generate more jobs and growth in the area, particularly for the younger generation and have the opportunity to stay in their local area and not have to move away so far from home. I believe that the conditions imposed on the mine will ensure that no harm will impact on the local environment and that the ones who are against the mine are scaring the public with miss information. Bowdens have given back to the community by supporting many services in the area and this is what will keep our local community going. |

100% support Bowdens silver mine going ahead, have lived here nearly 23 years. Have seen small local businesses open and close down within months (some only stay open for approximately 12 months) families up and move there's nothing here for young adults, travelling 45 minutes or longer for work you are lucky to be able to get a job in Kandos or Rylstone. I have a 4 year old daughter that has to attend daycare in Mudgee due to not being able to get a spot at the local Preschool. Bowden silver mine will do our small community a world of good bring more job into the community. Also bring more families to our community, new shops opening. If Bowdens doesn't go ahead families will lose their jobs having to travel for work, or if they can't get another job local they'll have to move to make it more affordable for their family. Some small businesses rely on tourism and big industries to help keep their businesses afloat, if not they have no choice but to close their doors. |

I support the proposed Bowdens Silver Project for the following reasons: - Comprehensive assessment has been undertaken and potential impacts and benefits have been presented to Government and local community - Community feedback received on the Project's EIS has been considered, including by engagement with NSW Department of Planning and Environment, and proposal refined to optimise water management and supply, and enhance economic and social outcomes, maximise benefits and mitigate impacts - The project will invest in infrastructure improvements that benefit the local community, and has and will continue to invest in the local community through its community investment and sponsorship programs - The project will create a significant number of jobs in the local area, including ongoing employment, and create many indirect benefits to the local economy as a result throughout the 23 year life of the project - The lifespan of the project has the potential to increase if underground mining opportunities prove feasible, potentially extending socioeconomic benefits - The project prioritises local employment outcomes and enjoys strong local support, and stakeholders are committed to ongoing engagement - The project will produce minerals recognised as critical by the Government's Critical Minerals and High-Tech Metals Strategy and with wide ranging application, as global demand and supply deficit increases, and as we all transition to renewable energy solutions - The project has a safe and sustainable water strategy, which was of high priority for the local community |

I support the proposed mine developement at Bowdens. Human consumption requires the extraction of minerals. The minerals in the ground can not be relocated and therefor must be mined where they occur. I trust the engineering used to contruct the mine will enable the extraction and processing of ore with minimal environmental impact. I am employed in the mining industry and support further mines to increase jobs. |

As a member of the local community I do sympathise and understand why the people living in the immediate vicinity of the proposed mine site are so adamantly objecting. No-one likes to see any sort of development on their doorstep, particularly a green field development of this magnitude. Apart from the Dolomite and Lime quarry and the Louee Enduro bike track close by, the area has been a very peaceful, idyllic environment for all those fortunate enough to live there. However, I think in this case - having read the report and watched the hearing - the pros outweigh the cons in my mind. Despite being sceptical initially, I now believe that this project has been extremely well investigated over the many years of exploration and am very confident that any potential health and water issues have been addressed fully and will continue to be stringently monitored. I am confident that the IPC will ensure that any health concerns that are being raised by the local residents are nothing to be concerned about as outlined at the hearing. Over time, I've come to believe that Bowdens are an honest and trustworthy organisation. I now have complete confidence in them and believe they would do the very best they can for the community if this project proceeds. My real concern at the moment is the volume of scare mongering going on in the local community about the health effects for us all and the impact it could have on tourism. We keep hearing about what damage this mine would cause, yet it's important to remember that we have become the top tourist destination in New South Wales despite having 3 very large coal mines on our doorstep. In fact, It is the mining industry that has enabled our area to go from strength to strength and provide our visitors with such wonderful amenities. I am not involved in the mining industry but can recognise the huge contribution it has made to this area. This includes contributions to community groups, events and schools as well as infrastructure such as roads etc. Economically it has helped the area substantially. I do not feel we should be turning down another opportunity of this kind with all the benefits it will undoubtedly bring to the community as detailed in Bowden’s submissions. The existing mines have had flow on effects predominantly in Mudgee and Gulgong. I was pleased to see in the hearing that this one would focus its efforts on the declining Rylstone/Kandos area (and was shocked by the recent census statistics). The proposed mine would bring considerable employment to areas such as Lue, Rylstone and Kandos which would help the people who lost their jobs when the Cement works and the Charbon mine closed down. I was impressed with Bowden's commitment to employing locally - with no suggestion of FIFO style employment - and picking up some of the slack as the coal mines wind down. I do understand everyone’s concerns as we all would love to live as we are now, with very little noise disturbance and pollution that comes with any development. However, the reality is that we all need to make the most of any available resources. Provided we can be assured the strict planning conditions are adhered to, I see this as a hugely beneficial project for the region. As previously mentioned I feel the current owners of the proposed mine are very decent people and would do everything they could to ensure everyone was safe. Given the scope of this project and it's potential contribution to Australia's renewable future, it is much better having people we have come to know, than ending up with an unscrupulous possible foreign developer coming to the area in a few years time. Bowdens and their consultants have done a wonderful job in explaining all the possible problems that could occur and how they will be managed . I did have initial concerns about water issues and possibly lead fallout, but the DPE conditions of consent have addressed these issues. Furthermore, I followed the hearing closely and I was satisfied with the explanations presented. |

Thank you to the commissioners for reading my submission. I am 19 years old and as a member of the younger generation, I have grown up feeling constant worry about the future of our planet. All that my generation constantly hears is that our world is dying due to greenhouse gases which is causing climate change and how its up to us, the younger generation, (who have barely had a chance to work out how the world works), to change the way things are done and to help the planet survive!! I read what I can about renewable energies and alternatives and what possibilities there are for the future. Mining is going to happen no matter what, because everything we do and everything we use is pretty well reliant on what we take out of the ground. So it makes sense to mine for metals that will help us move away from fossil fuels and towards more sustainable alternatives. Silver and zinc are really important for that. I know everyone keeps talking about the lead, but when I looked up how much lead Bowdens says they’ll produce and compared it to Mt Isa and other lead mines in Australia it’s a fraction of that and Bowden’s won’t have a smelter on site so I think the health issues aren’t the same. Lead is just being used as an emotional issue to make people worried and scare them into objecting. If the government doesn’t approve these kinds of mines in Australia going ahead, how do we, the younger generation, make the changes that the next generation is going to wish we that we had made. |

The Bowdens Silver project is yet another project "required" to progress through the governments/WEF'S own thoughtless decisions. We need this project to proceed in order to fulfil the governments promises. It's not a question of if it should go-ahead, it's a MUST go-ahead, but do so in a way that has minimal impact on mother earth. I support this project along with many others as we need them in order to shore up the future commodities doomed to be in deficit in the near future. |

My name Philip, I am the owner of Kandos bakery in Kandos. I have lived and run the bakery in Kandos for more than 9 years. Since the cement factory closed in 2011 and a few other coal mines closed after that, Kandos’s population has decreased dramatically. Kandos locals have no job and many of them have moved away to find a new place to live, others are travelling far away from home to work. Students after year 12 have no options to stay, they all go every year. Many businesses in Kandos have closed down, our bakery can not open much longer and will be closed down soon if this mine is rejected. Most of people who come and protest the mine are from many different areas, they do not really care about our life here, they protest the mine and they disappear, they do not give any solution for our community to survive. I know the mine somehow will affect the envirnoment but the benefit will much outweight. I hope that every member of the board can come and have a look at Kandos during the day, all members willl see how bad is our situation. Please approve this sliver mine, this is our last chance to survive in Kandos. Thank you for reading my opinion on this matter. |

I strongly support the mine to go ahead. The key issues highlighted - "Environment, Socioeconomic impacts and Hazards" are all well-balanced. Australia needs this silver mine, so that as a nation we are self sufficient and can be world leaders in tackling climate change (with application of silver). We need to mine to decarbonise for the renewable future. Furthermore, silver is a useful form of commodity, which will become more valuable in uncertain geopolitical times. Unfortunately, this will become important in the future. The socioeconomic benefits have been highlighted in the recent submissions and will be great for the local and wider community. There have been concerns regarding the lead exposure, water impact and the acid tailings. However, this all depends on how you perform the studies (with relevant definitions and methodologies), and where you sit on your moral fence. This is a well-balanced project. Multiple advisors, consultants and departments have reviewed the process and have deemed the project to be more than safe - with provisions and contingency plans. Moving forward, these issues should be tackled as an ongoing basis as with all other mining companies that are currently operating in Australia. Australia has the world's highest standards in sustainability and maintaining the best practices (as it should). I'm sure this will be the case for this project, as outlined by the stakeholders of this project. Overall, this project appears to be of a more benefit for the majority of people, then the few that oppose it for their own personal reasons. Thank you for your consideration. |

A few points that might help with ideas… - Sustainability and resilience of local towns of Lue, Rylstone and Kandos - Hope for school leavers who head away for jobs or go on welfare - Environmental and social responsibility is clearly demonstrated by Bowdens Silver - Coal mining will close at some point so we need these projects to get up not only to save jobs but continue to provide revenue, royalties and taxation to the county and State. - Silver and zinc are metals that are required in moving forward with a decarbonising society. Silver in particular has a big future in electronics and medical technologies - We need to produce more of the metals here rather than the ever increasing reliance on countries like China and Mexico |

The Bowdens Silver project could bring in more jobs opportunity and have significant economic benefit in the community. This mining project not just bringing more mining royalties for the local government but also increasing the productivity of rare resource such as silver and zinc for our green energy transition in near future. |

I write to support the proposed development for the following reasons: As a visitor to the area on many occasions (including the Lue Pub), I feel that the project will bring multi-faceted socioeconomic benefits including - employment opportunities and associated benefits to the region - provision of critical minerals which will have far reaching effects for NSW, Australia as a whole and is of global importance with our trading partners - especially Europe - in the context of the geopolitical situation with Ukraine, Russia and China. - I believe that the NSW Government and responsible agencies have undergone rigorous processes on consultation, planning, assessment on all key issues and understand that the project has met the strict criteria for approval. |

I make this submission in favour of the Bowdens Silver Project as a person who has worked extensively in the minerals and nuclear industries in Australia and overseas. The project has already been approved by the DPE after rigorous and extensive assessment and has therefore passed the requirements for development under the current stringent regulations and rules. When one looks at the development of Australia to now, it was built on the back of the mining & processing industries and agriculture. This must continue to the benefit of all Australians, particularly with a resource of such significance as Bowdens Silver Project. The project will bring significant economic benefit to the area through employment and provision of services and more facilities. For comparison, look at the city of Orange and its "nearby" Cadia mine. Silver is also a vital metal in a number of low emission technologies and its world-wide production must increase to service these industries. There has also been, and still are existing quarrying in this general area of the state. The rest of my submission is basically to counteract the negativists who oppose the project, since I have had some experience in these situations. Although mining and farming progressed this country, it is worth noting that mining "disturbs" a minimal amount of land compared to farming, yet usually cops a lot more flack from negativists. Look at other areas in the state with extensive mining such as Broken Hill, Cobar and Orange and many smaller areas of mining. Farming still carries on in close proximity to many of these areas, if not in bushland. Claims of opponents of particular wild life aspects, or effects on farming, generation of dust and noise, or particularly the escape of toxicity to anywhere are grossly exaggerated or false. I have lived in mining towns and on mine sites so I have familiarity in this regard and it is not that significant. Since the ore is a mixture of lead, zinc and silver minerals these are recovered in their same chemical form to concentrates. These minerals are present as sulphides, and in this form the lead is much less toxic. It is only when the galena (containing lead and some of the silver content) is oxidised in roasting and smelting that it becomes much more bio-available. As stated, the concentrates will be shipped away for further processing that will change the chemical form. The use of particular wild life in an area has become a popular technique of opponents to development, but in my experience, I have found this skewed to make their case more sad and sorry. Such assessments should be professionally based. So, in summary, there are many reasons to proceed with development and minimal evidence for the case not to proceed. The project should, and must go ahead. |

Sustainability of the local towns of Lue, Rylstone and Kandos Opportunities for school leavers who move away for employment or worse go on welfare Environmental and social responsibility is clearly demonstrated by the team at Bowdens Silver Coal mining will close or wind down going forward at some point so we need these projects to get up not only to save jobs but continue to provide revenue, royalties and taxation revenue to pay for all the services society demand. Silver and zinc are metals that are required in moving forward with a decarbonising society. Silver in particular has a big future in electronics and medical technologies We need to produce more of the metals in Australia rather than being increasingly dependant on countries like China and Russia. |

Silver Mining National Importance I am writing to express my support for Silver Mines Ltd Bowdens Silver Project and to highlight the national importance of the commodity silver to Australia. Silver is a critical commodity with a wide range of industrial and technological applications. It is used in the production of electronics, solar panels, batteries, and medical equipment. Moreover, silver is a critical component of many products that are vital to our modern way of life. As the demand for silver continues to rise, it is crucial that Australia develops and expands its silver mining industry to meet this growing demand. Silver Mines Ltd Bowdens Silver Project represents a significant opportunity for Australia to expand its domestic production of silver and contribute to the global supply chain. Furthermore, the Bowdens Silver Project has the potential to create jobs and stimulate economic growth in the local community and beyond. The project is expected to create hundreds of direct and indirect jobs, generate revenue for the government, and support local businesses. This will contribute to the economic development of the region and benefit the wider Australian economy. In addition to the economic benefits, the Bowdens Silver Project has been designed with a focus on sustainability and environmental responsibility. Silver Mines Ltd has committed to reducing the environmental impact of the project by minimizing the use of water, implementing responsible waste management practices, and rehabilitating the site once mining is complete. In conclusion, the national importance of silver cannot be overstated. As such, it is imperative that Australia supports the development of domestic silver mining projects like Silver Mines Ltd Bowdens Silver Project. The project has the potential to provide significant economic benefits while promoting environmental responsibility and sustainability. I urge you to support this critical project. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Robert Burd |

I have recently taken over the operation of a Hospitality business in Kandos, as well as another couple of Hospitality businesses in Lithgow and Wallerawang. This is my first foray into Regional/Country towns. I have been surprised by the lack of activity in town, especially Kandos. Towns like Kandos appear to be in real need of an injection of people plus jobs and money into town. This will also bring more small business to town and therefore bring a new vibrancy to the town that I currently do not experience. From looking at the proposal from the Mining people, I feel it will greatly benefit the local community by providing jobs, opportunity and much needed infra-structure. I can only see more jobs and money and opportunity being a good thing for now and into the future. |

As a shareholder in Silver Mines through a family investment company, I recognise that the company has done a great deal to minimise the undesirable impacts the project may have on the local community, and the benefits it may draw from this project. There are always many more objectors to such projects than supporters, despite the incredible advances that have been made in recent decades, in meeting objections. If such projects were disallowed, many would not go ahead to the long term disadvantage of communities as a whole. |

I am a Mudgee resident and I write in support of Bowdens Silver SSD-5765 EXH-39437454. My reasons for supporting the proposed development are set out below. 1. The proposed recycling of water through the process circuit and Tailings Storage Facility (TSF) management will support the proponent's commitment to "no competition for water with local agriculture and no impact on environmental flows" and its paramount commitment to protection of Lawson Creek from impacts associated with the proposed development. 2. The proposed development's water management and TSF design has been subject to extensive and rigorous technical scrutiny and peer reviews. 3. Approval of the proposed development will be a significant diversification to the regional economy which is currently focussed on fossil fuels. This is particularly important given that the life of the three coal mines in the Mudgee region is limited. Loss of direct and indirect employment due to likely coal mine closure in the next decade can be significantly offset by the approval of the Bowdens Silver project. 4. The silver and zinc produced by the proposed development will form an essential raw material critically required to ensure the viability and efficiency of renewable energy technologies leading to reducing global carbon emissions and global warming. I urge the IPC to approve the project with rigorous conditions of consent requiring the development to be constructed, managed and monitored in line with world's best practice for the management of acid mine drainage and the construction and management of the tailings storage facility so as to protect Lawson Creek and groundwater resources. |

I feel that all of the new technologies that we rely on, including renewable energy industries, need the raw materials that this mine will provide, including the lead. Australia has the best mining practices in the World, and thes minerals will be mined somewhere in the World if not here, so we may as well ensure these materials are mined in the most sustainable methods possible. It’s just not right to say ‘not in my backyard’ but then expect others to make a sacrifice if we intend to utilise the minerals and the technologies that come from those minerals. Also, Australia and our region needs the jobs that this proposal will bring, with the prosperity and the standard of living that we would all like. |

The attributes of silver in relation to science, technology, medicine and as a financial asset do not need to be re-stated. Just one example of silver usage is in solar panels- two thirds of an ounce in each panel. World events indicate that Australia would be wise to have a strong domestic supply of silver. For disclosure, I hold shares in this company. As I approach most things I like to see win-win situations for all parties including Australia, local people and the environment. |

Bowdens Silver Mine has a lot going for it including- Job opportunities now and into the future also the economic benefits and support to the local businesses in the towns surrounding the mine. A lot of small towns like Mudgee need these sort of developments to help continue to grow and prosper. The size of the mining are doesn’t seem to be excessive and as long as there is strict control over all the amenities including noise, dust, traffic and any chance of water contamination especially to the area directly surrounding the mine and they also have some regard and continued consultations / support and address any issues that may be a concern with the local community surrounding the mine continuing into the future. I do believe the recommended conditions of consent adequately prevent, mitigate or offset any adverse impacts from the proposed development. |

Good day. I work for an international renewable energy company, but I am here making representation on my own behalf. Silver is a critical component in the renewable energy market (esp. solar PV), and we will soon be facing significant supply shortages as the world ramps up the "New Energy Revolution". Every solar panel requires approximately 20g of silver and substitutes have been hard to find as efficiency is key and silver has the highest electrical conductivity of all the metals. As of 2018, the solar panel manufacturing industry used about 8% of the world’s annual physical silver supply. But this demand will be eclipsed as within Australia alone, there is over 100GW of solar PV projects in the pipeline and simply not enough silver in production to meet this demand. So, I ask that you please consider the greater good and help me and my colleagues with the materials we need to fight climate change. Thank-you and Kind Regards. Daniel. |

I would like to provide my support for the Bowdens Silver Project. The company approached us years ago and have kept us informed of the project and any potential impacts to my property. We have also been offered mitigation measures for any potential noise. We have been provided with plenty of communication, phone calls and newsletters as well as personal meetings. I have seen Bowdens start rehabilitation and use the land appropriately. Along the way, they have been good neighbours and helped with our fencing and driveway. I've already seen them employ a number of locals and think future jobs will benefit Lue and the region. |

I fully support the conditional approval of the proposed development of the Bowdens Silver Project. Going forward in the renewables space we need all the silver we can mine and, if anything, may not be able to find enough to meet the needs of the solar panel and electrical vehicle industries. The zinc and lead to also be mined at Bowdens are too needed to make renewable products for wind turbines and electrical vehicles. The jobs and skill set growth the mine will bring are the very things regional Australia wants and needs to keep country towns populated and prosperous. |

Dear Sir/Madam, I would like to express my support for this important regional development project. Resource projects such as this are extremely important for building and maintaining our local regional communities. They provide meaningful employment directly, and business support indirectly, to the communities in which they are based. They also support our society at large by providing the resources our civilization needs, and by providing the economic productivity that pays for our prosperity. Increasingly, there are ill-informed public campaigns mounted against resource projects on the basis they are bad for the environment and communities. The motivations for these campaigns are many, but most are fueled by activists who are antithetic to the principles of a free market-driven democratic society. Such campaigns do not have the interests of our regional communities at heart, and if successful will see people worse off in the future. The projects meet and exceed all of the environmental criteria required. Their long term impacts on the environment are negligible. I hope that the wellbeing of our communities and our society will be put first, and not the narrow political interests of activists. Best regards, |

The Bowdens Silver Project is significant for our community and our country, if the project is approved it will create jobs for our society. The benefits of the project will provide long-term employment, training, and business opportunities to the local area near Mudgee the Mid-Western Region. The project will benefit our school system and bring in more funding and resources for our future generation of manufacturing, and many more opportunities for our business to venture into a better business environment. The project will provide more funding to the local community's charity work to assist and bring in all people from other areas, this will create a community hub to benefit all kinds of populations whether young or elder. The benefit is huge as this will bring in more revenue for our government's treasury to provide its funding. |

IN PROVIDING WORK BOTH IN MUDGEE AND ALL THE SURROUNDING SMALLER TOWNS AND VILLAGES IT WILL GIVE THE LOCAL CITIZENS THE OPPORTUNITY TO WORK AND STAY IN TOUCH WITH FAMILY AND NOT HAVE TO MOVE FROM THE AREA. THIS WILL HAVE A POSITIVE FLOW ON EFFECT AND ESTABLISH A FEELING AMONGST THE COMMUNITY OF PERMANENCY. 10. BOWDENS HAVE OVER THE PAST SEVERAL YEARS SHOWN THAT THEY ARE PREPARED TO MAKE SUCH ALTERATIONS TO THIER PLANNING AS DIRECTED BY THE NSW GOVERNMENT AND ITS DEPARTMENTS AND SHOWN GOOD FAITH BY IMPLEMENTING SUCH DIRECTIONS RESULTING IN THE NSW GOVERNMENT AND ITS NUMEROUS DEPARTMENTS NOT FINDING ANY ISSUES FOLLOWING WHAT APPEARS TO BE A THROUGH AND RESPONSIBLE PLANNING AND EVALUATION. 11. THE IMPLEMENTATION OF THE BOWDENS PROJECT BY WAY OF ITS IDENTIFIED MINING DIRECTION WILL PLAY A (SMALL) PART IN ASSISTING THE ENVIRONMENT WORLD WIDE. IN SUMMARY I BELIEVE THAT THE COMMITMENT MADE BY BOWDEN AND THE FACT THAT THE NSW GOVERNMENT AND ITS NUMEROUS DEPARTMENTS NOT FINDING ANY ISSUES FOLLOWING WHAT APPEARS TO BE A RESPONSIBLE APPROACH BY BOWDEN AND THE POSITIVE IMPACT THE PROPOSED PROJECT WILL HAVE ON THE LOCAL AREA AND ITS CITIZENS THE PROJECT NEEDS TO BE APPROVED. |

Silver is a critical mineral for the environment . Australia has all the know-how to mine is a sustainable manner minimising the impact on the surrounding environment keeping the ecosystem. Closing the door to this kind of investments means operate mines in countries where there is less surveillance a more risk for the environment. As the world is one we will miss a business opportunity (as Silver is in great needs for the next decades) plus we anyway pay the consequences of mine activity operated not in respect of the ecosystem |

I support the approval of this project. The DPE's assessment report shows that Bowdens Silver have thoroughly assessed the key community and government issues. DPE and all of their departments including the EPA have not raised any issues and the conditions of consent appear to be suitably strict. Local jobs both in the mine and in surrounding towns in businesses that support the mine and mine workers will benefit the area. |

I believe this project needs to go ahead to support the local communities and towns surrounding the area. The coal industry won’t be around forever and in this region there is a huge reliance on the 3 coal mines in the area for supporting the community. This project will allow and enable the towns to prosper long after the coal mines are completed and with world currencies going to digital in years to come gold and silver will be the backing tools for this to occur. Silver is going to be much more valuable and required commodity in the future and this project will inject much security and value into not just nsw but the entire Australian economy into the future. Businesses like National pump and energy wouldn’t exist without these new projects coming on board and with natural resources being our nations biggest revenue generator we must keep allowing new projects like this to come to fruition to ensure our country’s future. |

Mudgee Region Rail (inc) MRR is a community group proposing to re activate Rylstone-Gulgong rail line for freight ,Passenger& tourist trains We have identified 100,000 TPa of logs from New England forests ,ongoing which could use the line . At present this tonnage is road freighted through Mudgee. Bowdens estimate of 60,000 Tpa of mineral concentrate presently is destined for road transport from the mine site to Port Botany or Parkes (Port Pirie) This is a large tonnage passing through Lue ,Rylstone, Blue Mountains Mudgee and other towns. We propose the containers could be loaded at the re built Maloneys Rd where it intersects the sail rail line. All road haulage through towns as above would be eliminated. MRR Has an engineering report from respected rail constructors " L******ium" cost bestimate $32 Mto to activate the line. Time from start to run 8 months. With logs100,000Tpa and concentrate 60,000Tpa an economical case for the line is made. What rail does best is high tonnages point to point. Not even to mention environmental and safety benefits. We ask that Bowden adopt this option in the best interests of the project,the community,&and the environment. Michael Sweeney ,(Chair) Mudgee Region Rail 0427 731 248 |

As a local land holder and a retired business owner I believe Australia and New South Wales needs this development to proceed for both the economic and mining works that will recover these mineral and ores under Australian supervised controls to ensure world best results. If these works were not to proceed and resources are developed in third world countries where the cost of human and environment compliance may not be regarded as important. This being a new development it would be scene changer for the mining of Silver and other ores in both compliance and reporting and being performed in Australia be monitored with world best practices. I am of the believe that with the closing of coal fired power stations and the flow on effect of coal mining this country is going to go backwards. Also the advancing EV world and needs associated on precious metals will not abait and I want Australia to be a growing force in the evolving technology.. I am a firm believer that approving this mine will provide far more benefits for NSW and Australia.then declining the development. |

As a local business we are in support of The Bowdens Silver Project as it will provide 320 jobs during construction and 228 ongoing jobs during operations. For every job created in the mine, rule of thumb shows another 2.5 will be created in supporting industries and the wider community, bringing wide ranging benefits to the region. We believe this will not only be beneficial to the sleepy village of Lue but also to the regional towns of Kandos, Rhylestone, Mudgee, Gulgong and other surrounding settlements. This brings opportunities for support industry such as our own metal fabrication business. Flow on effects are investment in local community and infrastructure, not only from the Bowden Silver Project, but also those businesses and individuals who prosper due to its operation in the area. We are happy that enviromental issues have been addressed. |

I want to make the following submission in support of the Bowdens Silver Project. As we transition to clean energy, Australia will need vast quantities of critical minerals and metals to achieve its targets. Silver will play a critical role in this transition. It has been suggested that silver will play an even more fundamental role than cobalt, lithium and nickel across many green energy technologies. Some of silver’s uses in this transition are: • Electric Vehicles - In an article by Maria Smirnova dated 17 February 2021 called ‘Silver’s Clean Energy Future’, Ms Smirnova says “silver’s superior electrical properties make it hard to replace across a wide and growing range of automotive applications, many of which are critical to safety and to meeting increased environmental standards”. With the transition to EV’s the demand for silver is likely to increase significantly. • Solar Panels - Governments around the world are encouraging and incentivising people to install solar panels and each solar cell requires a certain amount of silver. As the number of solar panels increases the demand for silver must also rise. • 5G Cellular Network Rollout – another big driver of silver’s industrial demand is the gradual rollout of 5G technology across the world. Among 5G components requiring silver metal are semiconductor chips, cabling, microelectromechanical systems, etc. Also, the race to 6G wireless is well underway and it would not be surprising to see an even higher level of silver demand when the next generation of wireless rolls out in the future. My understanding is that the supply of silver is struggling to keep up with demand so that’s where Bowdens Silver Project would be an invaluable asset to NSW. I also note the by-products of zinc and lead both make significant contributions to renewable energy technologies. Wind turbines rely heavily on zinc for corrosion protection as do solar panel structures not to mention the steel structures that support the energy grid such as transmission towers also requiring protection against corrosion. Zinc also plays an important part in energy storage systems and batteries. A benefit of zinc is that it can be recovered and reused again and again without a loss in quality which lightens the load on landfill. Lead too has its place being an important part of current and future solar panel design. Lead is part of the alloy used to coat the PV ribbons used inside solar panels. If the Bowdens Silver Project were to be approved the benefits to the local community would be substantial. Job opportunities both during construction and ongoing jobs during operations would have a flow-on effect to the whole community boosting local businesses, contractors, suppliers and service providers which would be so good for the Mudgee and surrounding areas. There is no denying fossil fuels contribute vast sums of money by way of taxes and royalties to the Governments which in turn help fund our schools, hospitals, NDIS, etc. As we transition away from fossil fuels the Governments will need to replace these funds from other sources so if the Bowdens Silver Project is successful, in time, what a great boost this could be to Government revenues. As the DPE assessed the Project as being in the public interest and noting the amazing benefits of silver, zinc and lead in the clean energy transition, I support this Project and hope that my submission in some small way will contribute to a favourable decision by the IPC. |

I fully support Bowden's project for a number of reasons. Firstly, I would find it hypocritical to oppose the project when I live in a modern society, enjoying all its benefits, most of which have come about because of the unparalleled properties of silver. Modern medicine, phones, computers, the internet, solar panels, motor vehicles, even the food we purchase from Woolworths or Coles have all been produced and delivered using silver components. They would not exist in their volume, quality or quantity without silver. Secondly, I find it impossible to expect some primitive savage in a far-off land to mine silver, and die in many cases, for the above benefits to me. These distant countries have rampant corruption and ignore the few regulations they have. Here in Australia, we can ensure any mining is conducted safely environmentally and follow all WHS requirements. Thirdly, the Kandos, Rylstone and Lue district community is literally dying for a lack of opportunity for employment. Since the works and local mines have closed the area has been subsisting on government grants. The younger generation has left and the area is rapidly being reduced to retirees or tree changers from the city who contribute little or nothing to the local area. The Bowdens project would encourage families back into the district and would reinvigorate the local economy by not only directly employing people but also creating many secondary job opportunities for locals. Since European settlement, the Kandos Rylstone Lue district has had a rich history of mining. These enterprises employed many people and ensured the future of the district. Few, if any, of these mines are operating today. The district needs Bowdens to return to its former glory. |

Gas Transport Solutions Pty Ltd 18 Portsea Rise, Mosman Park, WA 6012, Australia ABN 70 101 355 720 February 20, 2023 To: The Independent Planning Commission (IPC) of New South Wales Re: Support for the Bowden’s Silver Project My name is David Bradley, and I am in strong support of the Bowden Silver Project. I am Managing Director of an energy consulting business - Gas Transport Solutions. Working in the Energy Industry, I have become very aware of the critical and essential role silver plays in the renewable industry including: • A key ingredient for Photovoltaic (PV) panels. Silver is an essential ingredient in solar PV panels which are the current leading source of renewable energy. • For the electric car industry, silver is also an essential ingredient, used in car battery packs, electric engines, and battery management systems. Bowden’s Silver Project represents the largest single silver resource in Australia, and one of the largest in the world. Now more than ever, this resource needs to be brought into development to aid and stabilize the supply of silver into the rapidly growing, and essential renewable energy industry manufacture of PV panels and electric cars. I further support the development of the Bowden’s Silver Mine for a number of other reasons: • The project is 100% Australian owned. • The project will develop significant local and reginal jobs. o Estimated 320 Construction jobs, and 280 Permanent jobs. o Jobs are estimated to continue for 23 years and vary likely longer. • Capital Development expenditure of $250 million will have a positive knock-on affect to local and regional suppliers and service industries. • Water Supply has been managed such that it will be self-contained and not impact or impede or compete with local or regional agricultural. • The development of this project will result in significant taxes for the State of NSW. • The NSW Department of Planning and Environment has performed a rigorous assessment of the Bowden’s Silver project and have concluded the project is recommended for approval. The DPE will have considered the science of the project, as opposed to the negative sensationalized typical NIMBY responses of some local community members which has little or no science. I strongly urge the IPC to consider the facts and the science of the project and to disregard the sensationalized NIMBY baseless claims, and to Approve the development of the Bowden’s Silver Mine in order to realize the benefits mentioned above to help combat climate change. Very Truly Yours, David M. Bradley Managing Director, Gas Transport Solutions Pty Ltd m: +61 (0) 439 854 328 e: [email protected] |

I am writing to express my enthusiastic support for the Bowdens Silver Project. As a [relevant professional/individual], I have had the opportunity to closely examine the project and I am confident that it will be a great success. The Bowdens Silver Project is a significant investment in the future of the mining industry. It promises to deliver a significant amount of silver and other valuable minerals, which will have a positive impact on the economy and provide employment opportunities for the local community. In addition, the project has been designed with a strong commitment to environmental sustainability, which is crucial for the long-term success of any mining operation. I have been particularly impressed by the approach that the Bowdens Silver Project team has taken in engaging with the local community. They have demonstrated a deep commitment to working closely with stakeholders and ensuring that the project is developed in a responsible and transparent manner. This is essential for building trust and securing support from the community, which is critical for the success of any project of this kind. Overall, I believe that the Bowdens Silver Project has the potential to be a model for responsible and sustainable mining practices. I would strongly encourage you to support this project and to help ensure that it can move forward as planned. Thank you for your consideration. |

I am rates payer from the Mid-Western Regional Council LGA and I support the Bowdens Silver mine project for the following reasons: 1. Socially, there is constant concern regarding burning fossil fuels to create energy with a shift towards renewable energy and electric vehicles to phase out petrol and diesel vehicles being regularly discussed. To manufacture electric vehicles and other renewal energy sources, silver must be mined. 2. With the coal mines within the LGA reaching end of life; the LGA needs new industry to maintain population numbers, maintain support of local industry and small business and visitors. The LGA cannot rely solely on Tourism. With industry comes visitors and with the establishment of the Silver Mine and a new workforce, more people will either visit the LGA for the first time, relocate to the LGA or have family regularly visit. Since the extension of the Wilpinjong, Ulan and Moolarben Coal Mines (during the time I have lived in the area) the LGA has dramatically changed and tourism boomed. I know personally that prior to moving to the area I had not heard of the area, as had none of my immediate family who are now regular visitors. 3. The EIS submitted by Bowdens Silver effectively manages the impacts associated with mining and any Approval will be subject to strict conditions. |

I would like to see the Bowden’s Silver Project approved. I have been following this Project for some time and note it is the largest known undeveloped silver mineral resource in Australia. If it were to be approved what a great benefit it could be for Australia but more particularly for NSW both financially and for the jobs it would create – what a boon for the local area. We live in uncertain times especially noting the military conflict in Europe and this means the demand for safe havens will remain high in the near term. On top of this we are in the midst of soaring inflation around the world. After gold, silver is considered a hedge against inflation. Add to this the huge quantity of silver required in the renewables space and in the field of medicine, etc., the potential benefits for the silver produced by this mine are enormous. NSW desperately needs a project like this especially noting silver’s role in future technologies. The possibilities are endless not to mention the outstanding financial benefits. The resultant tax revenue would do wonders to help meet the State’s obligations and responsibilities. I do hope the IPC will see their way clear to approve the Bowdens Silver Project. |

Dear Mr Duncan AM, I am writing in support of the above project being undertaken by Silver Mines Limited (SVL). The above project is the largest undeveloped silver mine project in the world with almost 320 million ounces of silver with a life expectancy of about 23 years (company information). Last year, the Federal Government passed its Treasury Laws Amendment (Electric Car Discount) Bill, which will provide up to $2000 off the purchase price of battery electric and plug-in hybrid vehicles, as well as fringe benefits tax (FBT) exemptions for fleets and novated leases. The Minister for Climate Change and Energy, Chris Bowen, has stated: “The time has come for Australian households and businesses to reap the benefits of cheaper, low emissions transport that is fit for the 21st century. He has also previously stated, "The Albanese Government is delivering on its election commitment to develop Australia’s first National Electric Vehicle Strategy to unlock the nation’s EV potential and reduce transport emissions.” In addition, the New South Wales Government has established the 'Electric Vehicle Strategy' to accelerate the State’s vehicle fleet of the future, to increase the uptake of electric vehicles (EVs) to ensure New South Wales shares in the benefits. Therefore, both State and Federal Government's have created a precedent to implement cheaper and cleaner energy sources. The materials used to manufacture new EV's will require the following materials - nickel, copper, lithium, manganese, cobalt, graphite, steel and SILVER. Therefore, to support of the national legislation and the global demand required to manufacture EV's, with a state supported strategy, you should highly consider the above project. Regards |

I am in full support of the Bowdens Silver project going forward. Silver is a critical industrial metal used in hundreds of industries including healthcare, renewable energy and Electric Vehicles. The discoveries of new silver deposits in the world has been falling over the last 20 years and mine supply has been dropping within that time as well. Most silver is produced as a byproduct of lead, zinc and copper mining, NOT from primary silver mines. Bowdens Silver is an extremely important project for the future of Australia in my view and will create thousands of jobs for the local area over its long mine life. Also, silver is a monetary metal and has been used for thousands of years for that purpose, and I do believe there will be a severe shortage of silver if mines like Bowdens are not allowed to develop and produce. Thank you. |

The Bowdens Silver Project is extremely important for the continued development of renewable energy in Australia and in the fight against climate change. Silver is extremely important in all renewable energy technology, especially solar and electric vehicles. With the Australian Government and others across the world pushing for more renewable energy and electric vehicles, this cannot be achieved without increased production of silver and Australia is in a good position to be able to produce its own and avoid being totally reliant on other Countries for both raw materials and finished products. The Governments own climate targets for Electric vehicles in the future will not be able to be met without increased silver production from somewhere. The environmental impacts of this development cannot be assessed without consideration of the end use of the silver and benefits this provides with production of solar panels and EV's. If no silver mines existed, there would simply be no solar or EV's, so to argue against this mine proposal simply on the basis of climate change is nonsensical. Australia should welcome the increase production of silver here which will only increase in value over time with the global push for more renewable energy technology. |

I fully support the proposed mining in the area. It is of most concern to me that the amplification of scare mongering about this mine is as a result of selfish baby boomers who have come out to the country to enjoy the place. They have no regard to where all the resources come from that support their existence. Australia needs to mine. I trust that the regulations that are already in place will safeguard many aspects of any concern that is listed by others. The credibility of any "Action group" should be closely looked at. Unethical communications, inaccurate predictions should be called into question. It is just pure selfishness "not in my backyard" attitudes. The next generation deserves better. |

A significant silver deposit that would aid in the production of an industrial material, which is vitality needed for such products as photovoltaic products and liquid waste management. If we are serious about meeting future energy targets, projects of this scale need to comply with DPE standards and then be developed as soon as practicable. Having a resource of this size within Australia also has ecomical benefits not only to the local community, but the Australian supply chain and the economy in general. I do not have any objections to raise in regards to the proposed Bowdens silver development as of this date. |

I strongly support the Bowdens Silver Project as I believe the project will bring significant socioeconomic benefits to the surrounding communities. The metalliferous mining industry can be a challenging industry to work in due to the remote location of many mine and exploration sites throughout Australia. This requires individuals within the industry to make a difficult choice - commit to a fly in fly out roster and spend a significant amount of time away from their families or relocate their families to remote towns which often sacrifices the educational opportunities available to their children. These are choices and realities which many mining families accept due to the financial opportunities that well-paid mining jobs offer, however Bowdens is a unique opportunity as it would offer long-term employment at a world-class orebody in a highly desirable location. With hundreds of potential jobs on offer if the mine is approved, this would give hundreds of families and their children the opportunity to have both their parents home every night of the week in a community where you can also balance a healthy, family-friendly lifestyle. These families would spend locally and have their children educated locally, in turn making their contribution in stimulating the local economy for years to come. I believe this is a highly significant benefit of the project. Greenfields mining projects are inherently difficult in nature and not all stakeholders will agree, however I agree with the DPE's assessment - the benefits of the project certainly outweigh the impacts. We need to plan the careful extraction of these critical minerals in order to transition towards a cleaner future. |

Letter of support for the Bowdens Silver Project 16 Feb 2023 I have been involved in process design and construction for base and precious metal for over 50 years, working in Australia and overseas. I have worked on mine site developments across Australia, Africa, South America, Papua New Guinea, Indonesia and the Philippines. I have witnessed remarkable progress in safety, environment, training, health, equal opportunity and community development. I am proud to be part of this awakening and push towards higher levels of responsible mining. The working environment of my early years bears little resemblance to the mining and process plant checks and balances of today. Mining legislation over the years has dramatically improved all facets of the industry to ensure resources development is safe, responsible and accountable. Outside of the mine operations area; health, family values, training, education and sport are some of the community benefits I have witnessed. I am of the belief that good communication, clear objectives and responsible mining practices are key to the success of mining projects. I am a shareholder with Silver Mines Limited because I feel they instil these values and objectives. I strongly urge the Independent Planning Commission of New South Wales to approve this mining development. It’s the right thing to do, for all the right reasons. Thank you for the opportunity to express my support for this project. |

With the need to mine, refine and produce products domestically, Bowdens-Silver project is ideally placed to help fulfill the urgent need for minerals that are in growing need for our move to renewables. I trust measures are in place to protect any significant Historical items from this area of Australia's earliest inland settlement. In my opinion, I do consider the recommended conditions of consent adequately prevent, mitigate and offset any adverse impacts from the proposed development. |

I support the Bowdens Silver proposal on the following grounds- The risks and impacts presented environmentally and socially are able to be suitably addressed through engineering and design. The tribal divisions that are apparent within the community appear to be driven by rank fear and personal biases. Not on the realities proposed and recommended for approval. Alternatively looking at a rejection of such a project pushes the impacts of industrialised society elsewhere in the world with less stringent regulation. In short, it would be a failure of our society to take responsibility for necessary inputs into a renewable or simply prosperous future. In terms of inter-generational equity failure to approve this project based on local concerns from an elderly populace hamstrings the younger populations opportunities to upskill to solve the problems of tomorrow. Minds are equally distributed, but opportunity and ore bodies are not. Forcing the younger generation to move away from the region into the least affordable areas should they wish to upskill and build meaningful lives in the name of appeasing vocal residents is both cruel and destructive to the social fabric of the community, that will be torn apart as coal mining within the region winds down over time. Let the idea that a united and strong community exists not be overstated, there is a fierce division at many fence lines and even fiercer between the haves and the have-nots. A zero-sum mindset of a few should not prevent the majority from prospering. |

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION FROM ORIGINAL SUBMISSION. A little bit about myself, My wife and I moved to Capertee in 2008 from Sydney and I lived and worked in the small community of Capertee as the local NSW Police officer. I was in the town for 4 years from 2008-2012, During this time I saw first-hand the positive socioeconomic impact that the local coal mine had on such a small town like Capertee for the local businesses. While in Capertee my wife and I had two children who were both born in Mudgee Hospital. In 2012 I secured employment in a coal mine to the North of Mudgee near Ulan and I resigned from the police and moved to Mudgee. It was this employment in the coal mine that brought me and my family to Mudgee. My children are now 12 and 14 and both go to school in Mudgee and my wife works in well-being support at Mudgee High School. We have lived in Mudgee and I have worked in the coal mines for more than 10 years. My family loves the region and we regularly visit the smaller towns around the local area on weekends for family outings. Living in Mudgee and visiting the surrounding towns, the communities and the region have been the best days of our lives and we intend to remain for the rest of our days. I would like to note that 4 months ago in October last year I started working at Bowdens but for the record today I am representing myself and my family as a rate payer for the local government area and a resident of Mudgee. I am not representing any companies or organisations that I am affiliated with now or have been in the past, this is my submission. Leaving the coal industry was a family decision, not a financial decision, the coal industry is very lucrative so my decision wasn’t based around a wage from Bowdens, my decision was based around lifestyle and discussions with my family because we no longer wanted to be part of the fossil fuel process anymore. We also believed that there will be a decline in coal mining in the future and job security may become a problem for our family if I stayed employed in the coal industry. So with this in mind my wife and I thought that working for Bowdens would be a great opportunity to join a successful company in its early stages and grow with them as they start a Silver mine that could secure my employment until retirement. From such things that we had heard about the Bowdens Silver Project mining much needed critical minerals of Silver and Zinc from one of the largest undeveloped silver projects I was not aware until I started working for Bowdens that silver has more uses than just jewellery. I didn’t realise it was used to make solar panels, mobile phones, day-to-day household appliances, medical applications, water filtration or added to carpets and air purifiers to kill harmful bacteria, and that is just to name a few uses. My personal view about mining as a whole is that I believe it provides community growth and progress, it is what brought me to Mudgee in the first place and like I touched on earlier I saw it first-hand in Capertee with their businesses benefitting from employees and families of the local coal mine. I whole heartedly agree with the comments from the DPE in their recommendations that said “the Bowdens Silver Project would provide employment and economic benefits to the local and regional economies, royalties to the NSW government, and would be consistent with the NSW Minerals Strategy”. The entire local government area stands to secure significant economic benefits from the Bowdens Silver Project either directly from the project or indirectly from the workers and families drawn to the area as a result of the project with the predicted 320 workers for construction and 228 workers for operation. The Bowdens Silver Project will give my children and other young members of the community the opportunity to seek employment locally and stay in the region. Like so many before them young adults are driven away from their family seeking careers and opportunities that they cannot find locally. With the approval of the Bowdens Silver Project bringing families to the area there will be an increase in local jobs. All of the local schools, child cares, Café’s, butchers, bakers, builders, plumbers, council workers, delivery drivers, mechanics, car salesman, anyone and everyone, the list is endless as to the number of businesses that will benefit and expand and require more staff as a result of the workers and families drawn to the area due to the Bowdens Silver Project. I reiterate this was evident at Capertee when I was living and working there as the local police officer. With the decline in coal mines in the area planned to begin winding down in the next decade The Bowdens Silver project is exactly what the region needs when the coal mines are no longer here to support the town. Without Bowdens I don’t have a job, my family are not supported, I would have to try and look for employment elsewhere. I am sure there will be people that say the Bowdens Silver Project is only looking to make money from silver for their investors. Are we as people no different, is it not in everyone’s nature to work for a living and to make a profit from any business or employment, isn’t that why we all go to work each day to have an income to support our family. The Bowdens Silver Project is no different from all of us, they are looking to make a living, looking to support their families, and in doing so provide Australia and possibly the world with a much-needed critical mineral that will soon be in short supply. In closing I would like to again state that I fully support the Bowdens Silver Project. Thank you, Commissioners for your time today and allowing me the opportunity to have my say. Thank you |

I am in support of the Bowdens Silver Project for the following reasons: 1. New mines are required to meet society's demands for a range of commodities - Bowdens has the capacity to add to this critical supply. There is often a disconnect between those that use the commodities and support for their production. 2. There are recognised direct and indirect benefits associated with the project being developed in the form of employment, skills development, community support, local business participation, state royalties and federal taxes. 3. The resources industry has evolved to be far more responsive in mitigating impacts and managing project risks which is also supported by a stringent regulatory framework. 4. There are many good examples of where mining projects have co-existed with other non-associated industries and businesses - its doesn't have to be one or the other. 5. NSW needs to actually support an industry that it says it does, there is a risk that project refusals demonstrate a 'closed for business' position for an industry that has been a significant contributor to insulating Australia from global economic turbulence. |

I am in support of the proposed development. The Bowdens Silver Project will bring employment opportunities to the area and strengthen the local economy. Moreover, silver is a crucial component in a wide range of industrial applications, including electric vehicles and solar technology. Within the next few decades silver will be widely needed to support decarbonisation projects worldwide. |

I would like to add my support to the Bowden Silver Mine project and encourage its going ahead. The DPE report found no reasons environmentally why this project should not go ahead. According to this report there is no threat to the air or water quality of the environment. I am familiar with the environmental standards and projects being undertaken at Bowden, including seed saving and revegetation of native species. In fact, I am confident that the natural environment will be better after these plans and projects are put in place, as much of the land on which the mine is situated is at present degraded farmland. I am aware that Bowden staff are working closely with local First Nations members to ensure the integrity of Indigenous values and sites. This project will provide much needed socio economic stability and opportunity, especially as we see other mining opportunities close down. This mine is not a fossil fuel mine, and will provide key minerals vital to our clean energy future. Bowdens Silver Mine has my full support. |

I write in support of the approval of the Bowden’ s Silver mine. I have been a investor in this company since mid-2019. I was attracted to the company because of the emerging need for silver, especially in the increasing use solar panel and other renewable energy uses. I note the NSW has placed silver on it critical minerals and high tech metals as an indication of the value of such a product. It is great that this potential mine is in Australia, and not overseas, which will not only generate wealth for this nation but also create employment and other benefits the local community. My reading would indicate that the company has done due diligence with regard to ecological issues, such as water usage and environmental impact and has consulted with the local community. It would appear that the company has ‘ticked the various boxes’ and now awaits your final recommendation. I would be grateful if you would include this short email as being hearty support for this project as you make your decision. Thank you |

Let it be approved. The towns of Rylstone & Kandos, & in particular Kandos have suffered with the closure of the cement works in Kandos in 2011, Charbon Colliery not far behind. These closures cost almost 200 jobs directly & hundreds indirectly, a huge flow on effect. To see another industry take off in the area would be great, providing jobs & opportunities again directly & beyond. Yes I understand there are environmental issues, however the rules that would apply to the project would be strict & couldn't afford to be broken. Tourism in the area is great, but really only the cream on top, this was clearly seen during COVID , with no local workers in a big industry to stick around town, local shops felt the pinch. The area needs something to look toward, create employment opportunities, & bring people to town. If I can say the many organizations, community groups etc that Bowdens have supported with quite substantial amounts of money is quickly taken, but want to jump up & down & have this project declined, do they think about that ???? Bring it on, hopefully we can see some positive news in the very near future. |

Silver is required for the production of solar panels as well as other electronic goods. As the world experiences further deglobalisation, the ability to secure valuable metals for manufacturing these goods such as silver becomes increasingly important. Whether it be for Australia's future as a supplier of these metals or provide the means for us to develop these products onshore. Either scenario delivers an important picture for the future of Australia. Whether it be economic, environmental, or both. This project is therefore important to continue in it's development and this approval stage. |

I am supportive of the project as it benefits a regional area, and Australia more broadly, by creating employment and economic activity. Importantly, many of the jobs and skills involved in mining are diverse and high level ranging from geologists and engineers to operational jobs. In a regional economy mining also has a substantial economic multiplier effects as it brings revenue from outside the region into the economy to then circulate to retail and service businesses. At a broad level, silver is an increasingly important metal for industrial uses including the increasing electrification of the the economy. Mining silver in Australia using sound environmental practices is far better than having silver mines primarily located in regions within, for example, Central and South America where such safeguards are not so strong. The Bowdens project has been thoroughly planned and has striven over recent years to meet every environmental requirement set for it. It is very important to Australia's future that mining projects that show such good practice and intent are supported through the planning and approval practice to the point of being given mining rights. Should approval to mine not be forthcoming it will send a very negative message to other projects throughout Australia with major (but not obvious to the casual observer) economic consequences. Australia and in particular regional Australia's economy and society remains strongly based on primary industries such as agriculture and mining. This importance can tend to be downplayed and too much political and media weight be given to other sectors that actually contribute much less. |

I support this project because it will definitely provide economic benefits to local community, and money earned can be used to reinvest in serving local community better. Also, silver mines Limited has a professional and outstanding mining team that works hard on reducing pollution and damage to local environment to a largest extend. I really appreciate the decision maker can approve this project. |

Australia is dependent upon our resources to maintain our living standards. With every decision on whether a mine should proceed needs to be balanced between the risk to our environment versus the benefits to our society. The Department of Planning and Environment has assessed this project as being in the public interest. I agree that the project achieves a balance between mining our country's resources against the residual costs of mining, in this instance. Silver Mines Limited appears to be a responsible entity that has developed a responsible project for this mine. This project should not only bring significant benefits to the local community, but also to the wider Australian community. In the difficult circumstances that we have all had to suffer over the last few years, a positive step is something we all need & deserve. The benefits for all need to be taken into consideration and not just the concerns of a few. |

I am in support of this proposal as this area needs further employment for our area to grow. Mines support our communities through schools, local shows and other charity groups which funding does not cover from our government. Mines also contribute to our roads upkeep of which our council can not afford to maintain. Minority groups are calling this a lead mine which it clearly is not. It is a silver mine which is false information from these minority group. These days Mines operate under strict environmental conditions and I can not see this project not adhering to their conditions. |

I support the Bowdens Silver Project on the basis that the positives of progressing this project significantly outweigh the negatives aspects. The Project will provide substantial long term economic and social benefits to local communities in the Mudgee area along with the broader Mid West regional area of NSW. An area that is in need of significant assistance following several recent climate events. The Project is strongly supported by the local communities for the long term employment, training and business opportunities it will bring to the region. It has also been assessed by the NSW Department of Planning and Environment (DPE) as being in the public interest and approvalable subject to strict conditions of consent. As the DPE assessment report states, "the Project achieves a balance between maximizing resource recovery and minimizing impacts and the benefits of the Project outweigh its residual costs". The strict conditions of consent can be used to ameliorate the negative aspects and residual costs of the project going ahead. I urge the IPC to take a positive view when assessing the Bowdens Silver project and look at the long term benefits for a region and its economy that is in need of assistance. The positive aspects of this Project significantly outweigh the negatives and consequently it should be approved. Thank you. |

To: The Independent Planning Commission (IPC) of New South Wales Re: Support for SVL’s Bowden Silver Project My name is Brooke Mao. I am a post graduate university student in my last year of medical school at Sydney university. I am a shareholder in SVL and have a strong desire to see the Bowden’s Silver Project progress. I believe that the success of the Bowden’s Silver Project will position Australia as one of the major silver suppliers globally and be a major asset for Australia going forward. The Bowden Silver Project will aid the reliable supply of silver into the burgeoning (and essential) renewable energy and electric car industries. • Silver is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels which are the current leading source of renewable energy. • Silver is also an essential ingredient in the manufacturing of electric cars which require silver in their battery packs, electric engines, and battery management systems. • Bowden’s Silver Project represents the largest single silver resource in Australia and needs to be brought into development to aid and stabilize the supply of silver into the rapidly growing renewable energy and electric cars industries. I further support the development of the Bowden’s Silver Mine for a number of other reasons: • The project is 100% Australian owned. • The project will develop significant local and regional jobs. o Estimated 320 Construction jobs. o Estimates 280 permanent jobs. o Jobs are estimated to continue for 23 years, but very likely we continue further into the future as Bowden considers high-grade underground mining options in the future. • Capital Development expenditure of $250 million will have a positive knock-on effect to local and regional suppliers and service industries. • Water Supply has been managed such that it will be self-contained and not impact or impede or compete with local or regional agricultural. • The development of this project will result in significant taxes for the State of NSW. • Importantly - this development will support the production of key materials needed in the rapidly developing renewable energy and electric vehicle, aerospace, and general electronics industries. I strongly urge the IPC to approve the development of the Bowden’s Silver Mine to realize the benefits mentioned above. Kind regards, Brooke Mao |

Right now, Australia is in an interesting time and place both domestically and globally. I believe the USA (and the Federal Reserve) have for many years made demonstrably inappropriate and poor decisions in most arenas, domestic policy, Covid handling, geo-politics, world events and the USA is headed for years of, in particular, economic disaster - probably starting with a recession this year. That said, the age old saying of "USA sneezes and Australia catches double pneumonia" ring true. As the USA and other European countries falter, Australia, rich in natural and mineral resources needs to prepare to take care of its own self in a much bigger way. Irrespective of what we each personally believe about mining, it is a global industry that sustains billions. Australia has an incredible niche in this particular Bowdens Silver mine that needs to be allowed to run to its full conclusion. Not only will it be a part of assisting Australia (and FAMILIES - coz thats what Australia is - families that work, live, laugh, love and care for each other) moving forward but it will also help shore up our increasing manufacturing need for metals as we escalate the green agenda of renewables. This mine is incredibly smart and vitally needed on SO many levels - I really DO VERY STRONGLY ASK IT RECEIVES THE FULL SUPPORT OF EVERYONE AT EVERY STEP ALONG THE WAY. I lived in the Hunter Valley for 35 years and have recently moved to Tasmania, so I do know the Hunter very well. I was never involved in mining myself but did witness first hand the genuine far-outweighing benefits of having mining versus not having mining. Again, I strong support this Bowdens Silver project going forward - on so many levels, not simply financial. Thank you for allowing me to express my views. |

I would like to support the Bowdens Silver Project because I think it will provide the local community with not only jobs associated directly with the mining operation but indirectly uplifting all the local businesses. It will also have the added benefit of increasing the GDP of the country. Silver is going to be in huge demand in the coming years with the drive to Green Energy and this project will be able to meet some of that increased demand. The folks running the project are knowledgable, and I have no doubt that they will make this project a success and take into consideration the environmental impacts of mining in the region. In summary, this would be a great project to uplift the local community and Australia in general with little long term impact on the environment. |

To: The Independent Planning Commission (IPC) of New South Wales Re: Support for SVL’s Bowden Silver Project My name is Renee Mao. I am a film and television director based in Sydney. I am a shareholder in SVL and have a strong desire to see the Bowden’s Silver Project progress. I believe that the success of the Bowden’s Silver Project will position Australia as one of the major silver suppliers globally and be a major asset for Australia going forward. The Bowden Silver Project will aid the reliable supply of silver into the burgeoning (and essential) renewable energy and electric car industries. • Silver is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels which are the current leading source of renewable energy. • Silver is also an essential ingredient in the manufacturing of electric cars which require silver in their battery packs, electric engines, and battery management systems. • Bowden’s Silver Project represents the largest single silver resource in Australia and needs to be brought into development to aid and stabilize the supply of silver into the rapidly growing renewable energy and electric cars industries. I further support the development of the Bowden’s Silver Mine for a number of other reasons: • The project is 100% Australian owned. • The project will develop significant local and regional jobs. o Estimated 320 Construction jobs. o Estimates 280 permanent jobs. o Jobs are estimated to continue for 23 years, but very likely we continue further into the future as Bowden considers high-grade underground mining options in the future. • Capital Development expenditure of $250 million will have a positive knock-on effect to local and regional suppliers and service industries. • Water Supply has been managed such that it will be self-contained and not impact or impede or compete with local or regional agricultural. • The development of this project will result in significant taxes for the State of NSW. • Importantly - this development will support the production of key materials needed in the rapidly developing renewable energy and electric vehicle, aerospace, and general electronics industries. I strongly urge the IPC to approve the development of the Bowden’s Silver Mine to realize the benefits mentioned above. Kind regards, Renee Mao |

As a person who works in the NSW mining industry, I fully support the Bowdens Silver Project as we move towards a decreased reliance on coal, silver has many applications in health and renewables. There will be many skilled workers who could make the transition from coal into hard rock mining of silver which would be of enormous economic benefit to the surrounding Mudgee region. |

Australia absolutely needs silver mines for the years ahead. There is a global supply deficit of silver, and for the electrification of the world and to help make out country more environmentally friendly we NEED silver to accomplish this. Without silver there will be no solar panels, no electric cars, no computers or no phones. |

We need to do everything we can to maintain resource, energy security as well as manufacturing and supply chain security. Silver is a key commodity for the energy transition and I would much rather be paying my fellow countrymen to mine it here rather than buying it from offshore. |

I am writing to support the approval of the Bowdens Silver Mine at Lue. Mining and metals are the backbone of modern life. Every electronic device contains these metals making every single Australian and end user. As a consumer, I would prefer that the metals in everyday objects I use were mined safely, responsibly and with minimal environmental and social impacts. I've worked on major projects (mining, gas and infrastructure) in NSW and Qld for over 20 years and know how rigorous the conditions placed on mining are. Mining is an industry I'm proud to work in. It brings great benefits to communities and allows young people to stay in town. I encourage the Commission to approve the project on the grounds that benefits to the community far outweigh and risks which are managed by strict conditions that will be enforced. |

I support this project in many ways as this will be a massive boost to the local towns that miss out and have no major infrastructure for major employment since the smaller mines and cement works closed down.. It will bring alot more opportunities for the young generation that what a head start in life with a local mine so close to home and not having to travel. Will also bring alot of business to the smaller towns with day to day living and accommodation. |

Silver is a future facing metal, and the best electrical conductor of all metals - critical for electronics in general and the technology that will support a low carbon future, such as solar panels and batteries. NSW should support and assist companies that will support and assist NSW. This is a big picture project, and the Bowdens silver Project should be supported. |

I am a local resident to Mudgee. I live here with my husband and my two children. I support the Bowdens Silver development as I feel the Mudgee region requires diversification and the Bowdens Silver mine will enable transition to a low carbon economy whilst keeping many people locally employed as the coal mining industry down sizes. I understand that there will be some environmental impact, as with all development, from coal mining to wind farms, but this impact will be able to be managed in an environmentally and sustainable manner. |

This project, in my opinion is a fantastic opportunity to support future goals in regards to a Greener future. Silver is reportedly in short supply world-wide, and its use in renewable energy products is well documented. The requirements will only increase as we push toward a more sustainable future. We need to act sooner rather than later to meet the Silver demand required to achieve these goals, this project is exactly what is needed to do so. Regards, Glen Mack. |

Hi, I am in favour of the proposed development of a open cut mine. I believe the construction and ongoing maintenance of the mine will provide many jobs for us locals, now and into future generations, and this will also bring in skilled workers from other areas which will benefit the area immensely. I believe that if the correct procedures are put in place and followed then it can only bring good things for us all.I also think that it would help NSW to become a big stake holder in the clean energy future as silver is a critical element for the manufacturing of solar panels and EV’s which is the way of the future. Please approve this development. |

I strongly support this submission by Bowdens Silver mines as Australia needs to be recognised as a strong and growing country in the mining industry. The employment opportunities that will be opened up for people both locally and from other states. In NSW wales there are approximate 40,000 jobs across the state through mining. Also the royalties to the state government, helps the country financially. Silver is needed to secure a strong future for Australia and the fact that gold has also been found within this site is an extra bonus. It appears from the documentation addressing the issues that they have been carefully considered and addressed at each level of development. I would like this submission to go through as in my opinion it is extremely positive for the future of Australia both at home and globally. |

The world is using more silver, in its bid to become ‘greener’, than it is able to produce. Produced as a ‘bi product’ from other metal mining operations, the amount of silver created is at the whim of mining operations is dependent on the price (and availability) of the commodity they are mining. This new mine will be a dedicated silver producer, producing much needed silver for Australians, not to mention the additional jobs created to support country NSW based families and local businesses. Provided they satisfy the stringent regulatory requirements, I see no reason why this much needed project should not be given the green light and the full support of Local, State and Federal Govt. I support this project 110% and trust you will as well. |

The economic benefit of allowing the Bowdens Silver project will be large and go on for many years not just benefitting NSW but also Australia. It will provide jobs for people and taxes for government. Roughly 25 to 50 grams of silver is required in the manufacturing process for an EV and it is estimated that about 140 million EVs will be produced in the world by 2030. A 2 square metre solar panel requires about 20 grams of silver and annual solar panels providing solar electricity production is growing all the time. This silver must come from somewhere and if some of it does not come from wealthy nations then all of it will come from the poorer nations where environmental standards and safety standards are generally much lower. If this project goes ahead it will demonstrate how NSW & Australia can continue to lead the world in a sustainable & safe approach to green energy not only as a solar panel consumer & electric car consumer but also a producer of raw product that go into these technologies. |

I would like to put forward my support for the Bowden silver mines. I think it will create employment for the 20 years expected life of the mine. Which can only help improve peoples lives. Silver is a commodity that for centuries has been sought after next to gold so the benefit to Australia economically will be huge. I am certain the the company will do all the right things pertaining to sustainability, climate, vegetation etc and Im certain the state will hold them accountable. |

I fully support the Bowdens Silver project (ss5765) I have lived in the local area all my life and have seen how the local community thrive from a mix of mining, tourism and farming. The Bowdens project will add a much needed boast to the local area, with community funding, local and National taxes and royalties, and employment, including jobs for local youth which is desperately needed. Having worked in the Mining industry for 30 years I know first hand the legislative requirements the department monitor and enforce. I have confidence in the Environmental management systems and control plans Bowdens Silver have in place to control Environmental risk, and this project will no doubt be heavily monitored by the department regulators. This project must be approved as it will have a major positive impact in our local community with both direct/indirect employment as well as supply a much needed commodities to move forward with renewable energy.

As the world moves forward with EV's and solar power silver is a key component in both areas as well as having many other industrial purposes. A project like this will give Australia locally produced silver thus lowering the need to import such an important metal giving Australia a strategic advantage globally. Apart from the above the project will create local high paying jobs. |

I am in support of the Bowdens Silver mine. I believe the economic benefits to the local community will be significant and ongoing during the life of the mine. These benefits include both direct employment and the positive flow on effects of a mine operating in the area. With the econcomy moving away from fossil fuels, Mudgee needs to move towards minerals and metals of the green economy. This mine has the potential to provide well paying jobs in the Mudgee community during the transition away from coal to renewable energy. |

The Bowden's Silver Mine project in Lue presents a tremendous opportunity for socioeconomic development in the area and the surrounding community. The project aims to create jobs, stimulate economic growth, and provide critical infrastructure and services that will improve the quality of life for residents. The project will not only create jobs during the construction phase but also provide ongoing employment opportunities for locals once the mine is operational. The development of the mine will require a diverse range of skills, providing employment opportunities for people with a variety of backgrounds and education levels. This will help to reduce unemployment and poverty levels in the area and create a sustainable economic base for the community. Furthermore, the project will provide essential infrastructure and services to the community. The development of the mine will require improvements to the local road network, water supply, and power infrastructure, which will benefit the entire community. Additionally, the mine will generate revenue for the local government, which can be used to fund further infrastructure projects and community services. The Bowden's Silver Mine project is a significant investment in the region and represents a unique opportunity for socioeconomic development in Lue and the surrounding community. It will create jobs, stimulate economic growth, and provide essential infrastructure and services to the community. I wholeheartedly support this project and believe that it will have a positive impact on the area for generations to come. |

I am a strong advocate of the Bowdens Silver Mines proposed development moving forward, which through adequate risk mitigation, environmental sustainability and strong management, this mine will have a positive impact to the economic, social and financial outcomes of the local community and region, giving growth and future, enabling more job opportunities, support for local business and the production of Silver the Australian economy demands. Bowdens Silver, with its high application to WHS and Environmental impacts to its operations, I'm sure will continue to show transparency across all boards of development bringing the infrastructure the local region calls for. I believe it is in the community's best interest to support the development to allow the region to strive. Thus, giving my support to approve the application. |

Investment will be dead in NSW. Investors like myself on seeing NSW will opt out of investing in this state Land it offers to mines to investigate its potential. Millions are spent in doing so. Only to be shown the door. Many investors have put their hard earned SMSF into projects. If the mine shows it is capable and willing to use all precautions to protect the environment. Which I'm sure they have please approve this mine. I would like to continue supporting development in NSW. |

I am aware of the health implications from mining and lead contaminates for miners today. but I am sure with todays work, health and safety and environmental authorities impact studies that majority of the risks are managed appropriately. Let's face it, no workplace is one hundred percent safe, no matter the profession. I understand Health education materials need to clearly state health risks from lead across developmental stages and for sensitive populations, integrate a primary prevention perspective, and provide comprehensive evidence-based recommendations for reducing lead exposure in and around the home. Families rely on information provided by online public education materials that are important in protecting families and children from exposure to lead and strategies for doing so. I choose to believe that there will be transparency in the information provided by Bowdens, and that families then need to be responsible for their actions and choices once they have the information to make informed decisions. Mankind needs to be more diligent on self education, self preservation and being responsible for self care. Bowdens mining needs to go ahead for our communities. So many families have husbands, fathers, brothers who work away from home, because of the limited options for employment in our area. So many trades qualified workers, who don't even work in their hometown due to lack of opportunities for employment. The impact of the socioeconomics of our area is appalling, schools suffer, older children suffer due to lack of prospective businesses in the local towns, resulting in no work experience, no life experience. The loss of business from within our local towns is heart wrenching. The historic buildings closed and becoming derelict due to misuse is harrowing. When I was a teen in Kandos, the main streets were bustling, every store front contained a business from groceries, many eateries, fashion stores, gift shops, car sales and all the clubs and pubs were the place to be each night. Every person was employed by major industry, from the local cement works, lime quarries and engineering businesses, Our largest local employers are in health and the local supermarket. Today, they have limited days and less hours of operation when they are open, due to the lower population and lack of support because unemployment is higher and nobody can afford to support the business that struggle to remain open, and rely on weekend tourist trade, Having employment opportunities within our local towns, will encourage familiies to remain and build the towns employment and education possibilities. Family members of our communities can travel up to 3 hours round trip a shift travelling to mine sites outside of Mudgee. For some that means a 14-15 hour day. The risks associated with the travel, to keep their jobs is worrisome, especially with the unkempt roads currently. To have a large company, employing local members, that reduces travel time, would be benificial for our area. To summarise I believe Bowdens needs go ahead for the mental wellbeing of our local people and to build our townships back ups to the proud, bustling towns they. were when employment in the area was higher. |

Mining has had, and always will have, a major part in Australia’s future. The resources we have made our country it is today, benefiting so many Australians in every way. It’s nation that I’m proud of and love living in. I believe Bowden’s Silver Mine, at Lue, will also add to the resources wealth, not just the local area, but NSW and Australia. Silver is used in so many products we use in day to day life. It’s probably the best electrical conductor of the metals, it’s use in the medical, electronic and jewellery industries is vital. With the phasing out of fossil fuels and the impact of climate change, Australia, and the world, are looking for cleaner alternatives. Silver will be a major factor in producing these alternatives. The Bowden’s team have done an extensive environmental study showing that it will minimise the impact on the local area, and in my opinion, will enhance the Lue area during and after completed operations. Towns all over Australia rely on local business for their survival. Bowdens will provide employment for several hundred people and in turn will benefit local schools, retail stores, sports clubs etc. I believe the Bowdens Silver Mine will have a positive input into the local, state and federal economies. |

For the 21st century and beyond to meet the needs of the future green economy silver is a critical metal delivering superior performance for electronic equipment internal connections. It is a key component of computers, mobile phones, control equipment, solar panels and all places where improved electrical connectivity is required. In time it will be seen to be as critical to our future as rare earth elements. Bowdens Silver deposit offers a chance for Australia to maintain a strong internal supply for such a critical resource |

This project provides jobs and supports growth in the local community. Not only that, but the mine will produce important minerals that help with the growth of sustainable energy resources and supporting future technologies. |

Hello. I know people who work there. I can reassure you all the animals (and specific droppings) positions and trees are recorded . All native plants are noted and seeds collected for the restoration process. You can't restore a site's plant life if the water is tainted. So no need fear. Judi. |

To: The Independent Planning Commission (IPC) of New South Wales Re: Support for SVL’s Bowden Silver Project My name is Dr Lyn Wren. I am the owner of a large general practice clinic in the outer metropolitan area of Perth. I am a shareholder in SVL and have a strong desire to see the Bowden’s Silver Project progress. I believe that the success of the Bowden’s Silver Project will position Australia as one of the major silver suppliers globally and be a major asset for Australia going forward. The Bowden Silver Project will aid the reliable supply of silver into the burgeoning (and essential) renewable energy and electric car industries. • Silver is an essential ingredient in the manufacture of Solar Photovoltaic (PV) panels which are the current leading source of renewable energy. • Silver is also an essential ingredient in the manufacturing of electric cars which re |
