Abstract: For most mining projects, regular monitoring of environmental impacts is typically measured solely for the main operation footprint and not the supporting network of exploration infrastructure. Such infrastructure includes exploration tracks, roads and drill pads, where localised areas are cleared of native vegetation, and the surrounding habitat is undisturbed. Here we use DNA metabarcoding to study the impacts of mining exploration infrastructure on the ground-dwelling arthropod communities found on Banded I… Show more
