* The Australian government has approved an expansion of a Glencore (OTCPK:GLCNF [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/GLCNF]) (OTCPK:GLNCY [https://seekingalpha.com/symbol/GLNCY]) thermal coal mine, reigniting concerns among environmental groups.
* Glencore’s Ulan Coal Mines Pty was given the green light to mine an additional 18.8 million tons of coal and operate the mine for two more years until 2035.
* The coal mine already has existing approvals to mine up to 20 million tons of thermal coal each year.
* The Australian Greens have called approving coal mine extensions a ‘climate crime’, which would commit Australia to "providing the world with decades more coal power, which should be replaced with clean technology."
