Not only is the Grasberg mine dumping toxic tailings into West Papua's rivers, it is contributing to irreversible glacier melt and destroying a sacred landscape for Indigenous communities. Great to see this coverage shining a light on Grasberg's role in these harms: www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Funnelling minerals to the arms industry does not make us safer. Instead of fuelling a race for critical minerals – at home and abroad – the Government must ensure strict social and environmental safeguards and prioritise resources for decarbonisation.

London Mining Network @ldnminingnetwork.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

As well as fuelling war, the mine will cause significant environmental harm, producing 600 tonnes of waste for every 1 ton of tungsten. This puts local communities at risk from pollution, and questions must be answered on where and how the waste will be stored.

London Mining Network @ldnminingnetwork.bsky.social · 28/08/2026

Tungsten West, the company which owns the mine, has boasted to investors of the importance of tungsten in ‘bullet-proof vehicles, armoured tanks, radiation shields [and] hypersonic missiles’. Just 0.1% of current annual production, meanwhile, will be needed to meet renewable energy needs in 2040.
