Protest the Mines & Money conference
Global mining companies are coming to London soon attempting to find investors in their ruinous projects at the Mines and Money Conference (28th to 30th November).
Mining companies will be attending the conference incl:
- EMR Capital the money behind the proposed West Cumbria coal mine,
- Rio Tinto who blew up two 46,000-year-old rock shelters in Juukan Gorge, Western Australia

Join with us to oppose these projects and support communities resisting them here and abroad.
