A compressor station in the Fairview coal seam gas field (inset) is just one part of the company infrastructure supporting the massive US$7.3-billion Santos LNG project in Queensland, which will ship liquefied natural gas direct from its liquefaction plant in Gladstone to hungry markets across Asia.

Coal seam gas rally attracts thousands

The sentiment of northern suburbs residents was broadcast to the universe yesterday as thousands staged their opposition to coal seam gas mining.

Illawarra residents and members of the CSG Mining Illawarra group formed a spectacular 3000-person human banner at Austinmer Beach, urging the government to enact a moratorium on coal seam gas mining.

The group also requested a royal commission into the environmental and health impacts of coal seam gas mining. And they want a ban enforced on the mining technique known as hydraulic fracturing, or "fracking", where water, sand and chemicals are blasted into the seam to break up coal and release gas.

Stop CSG Mining Illawarra spokesman Chris Williams said the overwhelming turnout illustrated the community's strong feelings against the practice/

I remember Illawarra as a Dairying District... and the Red Beef Cattle known as the Illawarra Shorthorn

a most popular breed of its time..
