Gooday all,
Latest news on the Collinsville situation is the fact that Townsville have
forwarded a number of specimens to Brisbane for further toxicological tests.
A suspect has been identified but as yet no conclusive evidence exists, but
I am advised that some video evidence exists and we are to await the results
from Brisbane.
The problem seems to be of human intervention, in an effort to protect a
crop of Passionfruit from birds the indiscriminate spreading of poisonous
baits has occured.
More on this later.

G'day John,
Has any water analysis at all been performed ?
from a surrounding area close to the mine ?
has any outflow areas been checked ?
Under the public health act ?
thank you for the latest news ?
despite how bad the tale.
Take Care,
From a very saddened,
John A. Gamblin
