It is essential that the developing legal regimes around critical minerals, water, carbon, geothermal, and genetic resources meet sustainable development targets. Storey & Ward are at the front of policy development and thought leadership around offshore energy and onshore minerals.

Natural Resource Management Law involves much more than just mining and energy law. 

The rapid development of these areas to meet Net Zero targets has significant implications for both for-purpose and First Nations communities.

The interaction of these legal regimes with native title and cultural heritage considerations adds another layer to work in this area. 

Our practical and extensive experience in natural resources management law is essential to support civil organisations and business in their work.
