LAMP off Lynas!
Sadly this afternoon the Kuantan High Court has denied an application by parties associated with the Save Malaysia Stop Lynas (SMSL) group for an injunction against Lynas’ Temporary Operating Licence (TOL).

See recent media articles here http://www.washingtonpost.com/business/malaysian-activists-lose-court-bid-to-halt-aussie-miner-lynas-from-firing-up-rare-earths-plant/2012/11/07/fa434b4e-295c-11e2-aaa5-ac786110c486_story.html

Malaysian court rules in favour of Lynas http://www.businessspectator.com.au/bs.nsf/Article/Malaysian-Court-rules-in-favour-of-Lynas-pd20121108-ZU7L6?opendocument&src=rss

Lynas will now try and begin shipping its rare earths ore, that has been stock piled in Bibra Lakes WA to Malaysia to test run its controversial Rare earths plant - Lynas applied material plant (LAMP). Rare earths processing is one of the most polluting industries involving concentrated acids and other toxic substances in the process.

After September 5th when the Australian company Lynas Corporation were granted a 2 year temporary operation license (TOL), by the Malaysian atomic energy licensing board. The Save Malaysia, Stop Lynas group had blocked operation of LAMP through a temporary suspension of the TOL by the Kuantan High Court on the 10th of October, whilst two judicial review cases on the issuing of the TOL were pending.

We need your help to turn the LAMP off for Lynas Corporation and you can help make it happen. Please circulate the events happening in Sydney at the end of this month and if you are able to donate money to the campaign to help buil awareness in Australia, every little bit helps http://www.givenow.com.au/foelamp

From Mt Weld to Malaysia this project is posing threats to workers and communities. It raises a number of questions for Australian’s about the management and responsibilities involved in exporting radioactive materials that will outlive any corporation or government.
