Comment on Mudgee Guardian article re Bylong exploration lease

Posted by SPARKS, 31/12/2010 on Mudgee Guardian site.

That's how its done. A quick sale, millions of dollars changing hands and bob's your uncle a foriegn Mining company controls your life & your land.

It's Sickening & infuriating when you think that the State Government without the slightest investigation on the consequences can sell out it's community and mark for permanent destruction the furtile Bylong Valley.

If you want to see the "potential benefits for the region in terms of employment, development and investment, and addressing concerns which may be raised by the community,”

Go to nearby Wollar and see a town dying of MINING DISEASE, the community divided & evicted, the landscape ruined, the town shriveling due to the community being driven out by a noisey, dusty, thirsty greedy, destructive neighbour - King Coal.

Yes it won't happen right now BUT IT WILL HAPPEN!!

Lots of "visits" & "dialogue" from the Orange & Yellow flimflam men in 4x4's, lots of nice spin statements with big words like "STRINGENT" & "EXTENSIVE" Lots of half truths on what will happen. Judge for yourself, does the slow certain death of Wollar meet the sweat promises, or have things turned different.

BELIEVE NOT ONE WORD OF IT!!!

LOCK THE GATE!!!
