Mining leading rural economy as drought lingers - Gerard Callinan
Over the past few weeks we've heard a lot about two issues here on the
Country Hour. One: the lingering drought. Two: the boom in the mining
sector. This morning a further chapter in that story was written with the
opening of a copper mine at Hermidale in the central west of the state. It's
an area that has, like many parts of the state, suffered through the current
drought. Mayor of the Bogan Shire, Ray Donald, says the mine has already
provided a significant boost to the local economy and has provided an option
for farm workers to seek employment in a more stable industry. "As far as
our small rural community is concerned battling this drought, its certainly
a boost to our economy...real estate has certainly benefited from the mine,
as has small business and the employment in town."

How ironic Jean-Paul.  Mining is helping a drought stricken community and 
giving it a boost.  After all the rhetoric you've carried on with about 
mining companies and a drought.....
