According to a press release by Tyre Stewardship Australia (TSA), in November 2023, 800 tonnes of used Off-The-Road (OTR) tires and conveyor belts were recovered from a remote region in Western Australia. This project, the first of its kind in Australia, demonstrates a practical approach to managing large rubber products within the mining industry. Rio Tinto partnered with Carroll Engineering Services, accredited by TSA, to carry out the recovery.
