NEW DELHI | Jun 01, 2016: Australia today said the decks have been cleared for investments by ports-to-power conglomerate Adani Group's Carmichael coal mining project in Queensland .
Australian High Commissioner to India Harinder Sidhu said that all its environmental approvals have been granted to the company a couple of months ago.
"...and so effectively, it has everything it needs now to start its work. As far as I know, the way is clear for Adani at the moment," she said here at a function.
Adani has proposed to build one of the world's largest coal mines in Australia with a proposed investment of about $16.5 billion.
In February, Queensland state's Department of Environment and Heritage Protection had said it has issued a final environmental authority for Adani's Carmichael coal mine project in the Galilee Basin.
