glenr - that's a very credible and intriguing theory that global black coal interests may want to scuttle a BCE tech like Coldry. Some argue that the whole debate over global warming (if it is a debate) emerged out of the real or perceived threat uranium interests presented to coal interests, but that’s another story. I reckon there is simply too much political and economic capital at stake, starting in the LV, to let any Machiavellian manoeuvrings by black coal interests at home or abroad get in the way of proving the commercial viability of Coldry. The claim is that Coldry can turn brown crap into gold, the LV into a Pilbara, and I think all these games behind the scenes are to do with the growing realisation that this is not an alchemist’s fantasy but a scientific reality. Monash, Arup, K-coal … they all want in.
