Opponents of plans to start a coal industry in Papua New Guinea are planning to protest today s AGM of Australian miner, Mayur Resources, in Brisbane.
Mayur wants to mine coal on PNG s south coast and transport it to Lae where it plans to build a coal-fired power station.
Such a move would make PNG the first Pacific nation to have a coal industry, and comes amid strong regional opposition to Australia s involvement in such an industry.

Mayur has previously dismissed concerns that have raised about the pollution generated by mining and coal fired power stations.
