February; The most obvious examples of waste are the Grasberg mine<br />

in West Papua/Indonesia, owned by Freeport MacMoran <strong>and</strong> Rio<br />

Tinto, <strong>and</strong> the OK Tedi mine in Papua New Guinea formerly owned by<br />

BHP Billiton. The Freeport mine has been quoted as dumping 110,000<br />

tons of tailings per day into the Ajikwa river, <strong>and</strong> by the time it closes in<br />

30 years it will have excavated a 230-sq km hole in the forest that will<br />

be visible from outer space.<br />
