India hedges its bets with coal & renewables. Bangladesh is going for what can supply power now.
"Brisbane-based mining software consultant RPM Global Holdings has entered into an advisory services contract with the Barapakuria Coal Mining Company (BCMCL) in Bangladesh.
As a member of a three-team consortium, the company will join Fugro Consult GmbH and Mibrag Consulting International GmbH to deliver a feasibility study for development of the Dighipara Coal Field located in Dighipara, Dinajpur.
The project aims to determine the technical and economic feasibility of the Dighipara Coal Field and will cost US$18.5m (A$25m).
The Dighipara coal mine, which has 865 million tonnes of coal available to excavate, could become a major player in delivering “uninterrupted power” in Bangladesh.""
