A Papua New Guinea court has rejected a bid by Mineral Resources Authority to prevent the release of deepsea mining documents. The Authority had applied for the dismissal of a case to obtain key documents relating to approval of the stalled Solwara1 deepsea mining project...PNG's Prime Minister James Marape has declared the Solwara 1 project in PNG waters to have been a total failure. He has also supported Fiji's call for a Pacific regional moratorium on deep sea mining.
