Indigenous envoy challenges Siemens in Germany over Adani mine

Indigenous representative will tell Siemens it is wrong to say traditional owners support Adani's Carmichael mine

An envoy from an Australian Indigenous group has travelled to Germany to push for a meeting with the head of technology giant Siemens, claiming the company failed to properly check that traditional owners supported Adani's controversial Carmichael coal project in Queensland.

The Wangan and Jagalingou Family Council, which has spent years challenging the Adani mine, says the company was wrong to claim the project had been approved by its people.
