Activists have made camp to protest in front of the Olympic Dam Mine near Roxby Downs, 560 kilometres north-west of Adelaide. A Gate was broken, and there have been a few arrests at the otherwise peaceful demonstration site. Police says roadblocks around the area will remain in place for a week. If you want further information on the problem, the awareness homepage from 2011, Roxstop-action.org is a good place to start. You’ll find a film called “Wake UP” by David Bradbury, plus further information on the planned expansion of the Olympic Dam Mine.
