Queensland Land Court rules against Clive Palmer's Waratah Coal mine in landmark rulingThe Queensland Land Court has ruled human rights would be unjustifiably limited by a proposal to dig the state's largest coal mine in the Galilee Basin in Central Queensland.Key points:- The proposed coal mine would have been Queensland's largest thermal coal mine- It's the first time a group has successfully argued mined coal would impact human rights by contributing to climate change- Queensland Land Court president Fleur Kingham ruled preserving human rights outweighs economic benefitsFirst Nations-led activist group Youth Verdict challenged an application by mining company Waratah Coal, owned by billionaire Clive Palmer.Queensland Land Court president Fleur Kingham said she would not be recommending Waratah Coal's application for a mining lease and environmental approval to be granted."With declining demand for thermal coal, there is a real prospect the mine will not be viable throughout its projected life and not all the economic benefits will be realised," Ms Kingham said."We hope today's decision will mean other coal mining companies will think twice before attempting to force new climate wrecking proposals on Queenslanders," Central Queensland Environmental Advocacy director Coral Rowston said."
