Bougainville set to dig up the past
- Description:
- The Rio-Tinto mine that sparked the civil war on Papua New Guinea's island of Bougainville decades ago is now economically viable, and could be re-opened. Bougainville Copper - the Rio subsidiary that owns the mine lease - has just completed a study which shows the project could be reopened in six years. But while it's more than a decade since the war ended, sensitivities remain.
