More Small Australian Coal Mines bought by China

I am not sure of the size but the companies are not as large as BMA or the Like..

On the Cusp of Rio Tinto Drama China goes for the Plunge

for Felix Resources Pty Ltd 

- China's state-owned Yanzhou Coal is expected to make a bid for Australian coal miner Felix Resources Pty Ltd that would value the Brisbane-based company at 3.5 billion Australian dollars (2.8 billion US dollars), news reports said Tuesday. Any attempt to block or fix conditions to the bid would further strain relations between Australia and its biggest trading partner,

The Australian newspaper said.

 Felix Resources Pty Ltd ..who are they, what do they mine?             Coal, metallurgical coal used in Steel Production? Is it easier to import this coal than mine the small China Mines.  Is there an work deal where they can bring in their workers too?

State Premier Anna Bligh yesterday said she blocked plans by Queensland Energy Resources Pty, owner of the McFarlane deposit, to dig up about 400,000 metric tons of rock for testing. The company is seeking urgent talks with the state government over the proposal to mine more than 1.6 billion barrels of oil over the next 40 years, it said in an e-mailed statement. http://www.bloomberg.com/apps/news?pid=20601080&sid=agpSaCd2VcTA&refer=asia

Even if this wretched business goes under,  he will still have a few billion on hand..

Chinese state-owned metals trader Minmetals agreed to buy Oz Minerals Ltd, the world's No.2 zinc miner, for US$1.7 billion, the second Chinese resources firm to come to the rescue of a debt-laden Australian miner in less than a week.

DEATH BY PROPOFOL or the growth of microorganisms?

      • Michael Jackson died of "lethal levels" of the powerful anesthetic propofol, according to a search warrant affidavit unsealed today in Houston.

        BUT   Strict aseptic technique must always be maintained during handling. Diprivan Injectable Emulsion is a single-use parenteral product which contains 0.005% disodium edetate to inhibit the rate of growth of microorganisms, for up to 12 hours, in the event of accidental extrinsic contamination. However, Diprivan Injectable Emulsion can still support the growth of microorganisms, as it is not an antimicrobially preserved product under USP standards. Accordingly, strict aseptic technique must still be adhered to. Do not use if contamination is suspected. Discard unused portions as directed within the required time limits (see DOSAGE AND ADMINSTRATION, Handling Procedures). There have been reports in which failure to use aseptic technique when handling Diprivan Injectable Emulsion was associated with microbial contamination of the product and with fever, infection/sepsis, other life-threatening illness, and/or death.

    MP upset by Insult from Hon. Zwartzen

    Gold Coast MP Jann Stuckey
    Insults ... Jann Stuckey has made a complaint in Parliament. / News Limited picture

    A FEMALE MP has been told she's doing women no favours after complaining about insults after a stoush in the Queensland Parliament.

    Jann Stuckey called for action over comments by Information and Communication Technology Minister Robert Schwarten.

    But Leader of the House Judy Spence told her: "You do women no great service by acting so sensitively on an issue such as this."

    My Reply to the Paper:

    "Communication Technology Minister Robert Schwarten is not known for his tact, let alone his broad-minded, that is tolerant of others’ views: willing to tolerate a wide range of ideas and behaviours. 

    I am amazed that the Labour Party has Judy Spence the Leader of the House.  Is it because she made such a muck-up of any ministerial job they gave anointed her?"

    Ms Spence had a few portfolios.. She was replaced as Police Minister by an Educated Member, Neil Roberts
    http://www.correctiveservices.qld.gov.au/About_Us/The_Minister/index.shtml

    Was there a protest re Spence's Ousting from this Position?
    She gets to be "Leader of the House?"  Or is it that she is the Eldest!?
    So by age they inherit or be anointed to the Position of "Speaker of the House?" Courier Mail has it's List of Blunders??
    • Judy Spence in strife over credit claim for new pools
      STRIFE-prone Sports Minister Judy Spence is in deep water after her department erected two signs claiming credit for new council pools. The Courier-Mail can disclose officers from ...
      www.news.com.au/couriermail/story/0,23739,25123478-952,00.html

            By Spence? Most of this by now is Old Hat.. the woman has had her fair share of Insults thrown at her, even from moi.

            Still Fraur Hon. Zwartzen will get his....

    Quote:
    The U.S. New World Order (NWO) thugs are gambling big in their strategy; mainly to take down America and its currency without destroying themselves in the process, both financially and politically.


    They can no longer control the short end of the yield curve aka their ridiculously low short term interest rates given the carrying charges for their toxic derivatives, which are still parked in U.S. banks, are now being absorbed at a greater cost by the European Union and the People's Republic of China.


    Note: Do not be fooled, folks.  No one is buying U.S. bonds right now.  In fact the recent auction of U.S. Treasury notes had no buyers at all - the Chinese and the rest of the world took a pass."

    Such things have happened in the past.. Still I doubt if this is possible. The rush on 'gold' and other precious metals may lead us to believe all is possible, if not probable.
