A central Queensland nature reserve may be swallowed by Australia’s biggest coalmine because an endangered species cannot be included on an environmental impact submission.
Paola Cassoni, owner of Bimblebox nature reserve near Alpha, says there have been two sightings of the endangered black-throated finch on her property.
However, the sightings have not been confirmed by federal authorities and can’t be included in a submission by Ms Cassoni, who is desperate to save the reserve from Waratah Coal’s planned China First mine.
