Pratten resident of nearly 20 years Bevan Springate says he wouldn’t like to see the community turned into a mining hub.
A STRONG resistance is expected to rise from Pratten if a mining exploration permit covering the area is given the green light.
The coal mining agenda west of Warwick remains on hold while the state government reaches a decision on permit EPC2784, yet talk is still fierce among local residents.
Pratten Post editor Marianne Irvine told the Daily News she didn't doubt there would be "some sort of protest" in the shire if the permit to explore was approved. "What form it takes obviously depends on people power," she said.
