Living Treasure Clive Palmer wants to dig coal out of the Bimblebox Nature Refuge near Alpha in Central Queensland. Bimblebox is home to the threatened sub-species of the Black-throated Finch.

I draw your attention to an article in Saturday's Courier Mail (31/3/2012 Page M36) about mining in Nature Refuges:

A letter to the editor in support would be worth the effort - the paper will do a bigger article if there is a big response!
